Expand the World at Your Fingertips

The world of drawing is much broader than you might think. Pursue hands-on roles in any number of traditional careers (freelance artwork, print production, and various on-paper illustration projects, of course). But, with today’s technology, illustration roles in film, television, social media, and even video games are in higher demand than ever before.

Engage a variety of mediums including pencil, ink, charcoal, and digitally-based platforms. Explore your talents in still life, street art, portraits, landscape, and on-screen illustration. Pursue your passion without limitation, with a BA degree in art-drawing, from NGU.
