This blog is mainly for 2D Art students at AAW, but others are also welcome to participate. The purpose of this blog (for now, at any rate) is: 1) to serve as an art resource for students and anyone else that is interested, and 2) to provide a place for dialog for things pertaining to anything that has to do with 2D Art. Topics for discussion could include drawing, painting, printmaking, artists, philosophical issues regarding art, etc.
The main focus of the 2D Art classes at AAW is drawing and painting. We also do some printmaking, on a somewhat more limited basis (mainly linocuts). Of course, one could also consider things like digital art and even photography to be "2D Art". Feel free to discuss these types of things as well, but they do not play a significant role in the 2D Art classes at AAW. (AAW also offers classes in computer graphics and photography, but they are considered "technology arts" at our school.
Please also note that our main focus is on "fine art", whatever that means. The term "fine art" means different things to different people. One could argue that certain forms of illustration could be considered to be fine art. Others would have even broader definitions, and include things such as graffitti/tagging, comic book/graphic novel art, anime, etc.
I encourae you to explore the many links on this blog. My hope is that you will discover a lot of new artists, types and styles of 2D art, and broaden your perspective on art in general.
So... let's talk about art!
