I want to repeat the word ELEGANT!
I taught at the Rhode Island School of Design for three years. Talk about wandering in the thankless desert of post-modernism. The foundation drawing course was experiments with textures marks and shapes. It was split in two, fortunately the other half got figure drawing, though most of them seemed to have skipped those classes. The best figurative teacher they had was relegated to the night classes.
The students and teachers seem to enjoy and wallow in their artistic ignorance. It depressed so much I quit!
