I just registered for fall classes at Corcoran College of Art and Design and I'm extremely happy with my schedule! I start classes on the first week of September and I will be taking 13.5 credits for my first semester. I'm taking my core art education classes ED6020 Development, Behavior, and Learning, ED6060 Digital Art for Educators, ED5000 Graduate Art Education Core, and FN5000 Graduate Studio Foundation. But the class I'm most excited for is CR1400 Clay loves Printmaking! Yes, that is the actual name of the class! Here is the course description :
"Like peaunt butter and chocolate, this whole can transcend its parts. We will explore a range of techniques combining printmaking and clay from singular mono prints to magical multiples. The print side will bring linoleum cuts, screen printing, and 2-D and 3-D mono printing to the ceramics studio. Clay components will include basic slab work and hand building as well as slipcasting. We will incorporate printmaking at both the plastic and post-fire stages of making. Intro level experience with screen printing and ceramic hand building will be helpful." I really think this class will make my first semester be a easy transition because I will be learning and doing what I love to do! Of course I'm excited about the Art Education classes, but I wanted to make sure I could still take some studio classes in Ceramics or Printmaking so I could work on improving my techniques for my work own work which I combinie the two processes. Now I will be taking a class that is focused just in that! I know I made a great decision with Corcoran, even though I will be in major debt by the time I'm out. I keep on having to explain to my parents that it will be well worth it end the end, and by the look of my first semester schedule I know it will!
