Course Description
Learn how to create clear, well-composed digital art using real-world design tools.
Students will begin with sketches, photography, or collage before bringing their ideas into the digital space using GIMP. Other applications such as Procreate and Adobe Photoshop will be discussed.
Students will explore key graphic design principles like composition, contrast, and typography—learning how to structure and refine a visual message. Projects will move between hands-on and digital work, giving students the opportunity to experiment with tools and build design skills at their own pace.
