Drawing Viterbo: Fred Lynch

Fred Lynch is the instructor of the course. He is a professor at Rhode Island School of Design and was formerly chair of the Illustration Department at Montserrat College of Art.

Journalistic Drawing in Italy

In this course, students develop images both in sketchbooks, and as individual works based directly on their experiences living and traveling in Italy. Students closely observe, document, and comment on their investigations of various aspects of Italian life and culture. On-site drawing is a major focus of the course, as is the use of drawing as a communication tool. Students examine and consider the work of journalistic illustrators as well as artists relevant to the classes’ focus.
