The following work was created by Drawing Foundations 1 (AR221) students who attended my classes at The University of North Alabama during the 2021/22 and 2022/23 academic years. Two exceptions are the nude figure drawings, completed by students who attended the class I taught in Figure Drawing (AR369). The Figure Drawing class was a smaller, more intimate group for which I did not utilize Canvas in evaluating work, therefore I have very limited documentation of student work for that class.
