13 Jan 2022 Thursday. Final crit

collection of sketches from this morning's crit

I am still troubled about the quality of the drawings from our students - I have offered to give additional classes on Saturdays but there has been little or no uptake. The pandemic is one of the reasons, but there is a general lethargy to learn more manual drawing skills - perhaps they think that digital graphics will serve them well. Even the lecturers seem to think that way - I have an idea to combine manual drawing with a digital platform. Describe - using sketches and text to document a location/building/space, Dissect - cutting a section through the same subject, and De-construct - breaking down it down into the component/parts of the whole in sketches. Text can be used to help explain, but these should be kept to a minimum.
