You are SO speaking my language!! My daughter is into representational art, and it is shocking how many schools treat the foundational skills as less critical. Conversely, I have read and been told that employers WANT excellent drawing and foundational skills! In terms of programs that we have discovered that are good at digital skills, the most intriguing program that I have read about art at either the University of Connecticut or Rochester Institute of Technology. If you are referring to more learning accurate drawing for representation, I would look at Loyo
la Marymount in CA. I would be very curious what you find!! Can you help me “measure” the appropriateness of digital training? As a non-artist, how can I tell? When I see all the art in the gallery online is conceptual, I shy away, but I don’t really know how to measure the effectiveness of digital training. What does he want to study?
