Figure Drawing Homework Display

For Professor Sara Pedigo's Figure Drawing class, their last homework assignment was directed at seeing and spending time on a single drawing. The final outcome of the drawing had no weight on the grade received,  instead time spent looking and drawing made up the grade. 
Pedigo set up this assignment to challenge the student to approach "risk-taking" and "experimenting" with materials, and working up past a usual designation of "completeness", asking students to erase their progress and rework the original drawing.

Check out all their hard work!

Drawing I: Exploring techniques from the Middle Ages


Professor Don Martin had the opportunity to visit the Catholic Monastery on the St. John's University campus where he helped supervise the recreation of the St. John's Bible using traditional techniques from the Middle Ages. 

Martin brought what he learned back to Flagler and his Drawing I class got a chance to experiment with these traditional techniques using hand-carved quills made out of turkey feathers. He explained the process the feathers undergo in preparation to be made into quills and demonstrated the different nibs styles used to produce various lines.

The St. John's Bible will conveniently be on display in the Proctor Library for the next couple of months so that students have the opportunity to see professional calligraphic work rendered through the same traditional techniques they learned in class.
