Drawn Together

Home › News › Featured Stories › Drawn Together

For more than 20 years, Jill Schrift, art, has taught students to “draw what you see, not what you know.” In her introductory-level courses, students collaborate to create large charcoal drawings. For each drawing, students start by tackling sections individually, then work together to blend them into a cohesive whole.
