Overview<\/h2>\n

Painting courses are offered within the <\/strong>Visual Arts (BA)<\/a><\/p>\n

What You Will Study<\/div>
\n

At the introductory level, students are oriented to the fundamentals of painting, including a familiarity with materials and media. After an initial immersion into the basics of paint application, compositional organization, modeling of form, and expressive paint handling, students are encouraged to use these skills to explore ideas and freely experiment with a range of techniques and processes. The use of materials, media, concepts, ideas, and approaches are explored through slide lectures, discussions, demonstrations, readings, and class trips to many Metropolitan-area galleries and museums.<\/p>\n

Through Painting courses, students are introduced to and encouraged to explore in greater depth a wide variety of media, including oil, acrylic, tempera, and watercolor, as well as techniques that link painting to printmaking, papermaking, photography, sculpture and multimedia. Ideas about painting are analyzed within the context of artists’ works from diverse genres, historical periods and cultures, with a particular emphasis on the contemporary art scene. Through an energetic atmosphere and individualized attention, students are encouraged to find their own personal voices as expressive artists.<\/p>\n
