ARTS 353 - Painting II 3 s.h.

A studio course that further investigates the materials and processes of painting. Emphasis is placed on developing the student’s use of design theory to aid composition. Also, students research contemporary artists, and their painting processes to inform their work, and develop a personal approach in the use of paint as an expressive medium. Instructional aids include the use of demonstrations, references to contemporary artists, and skill development through many experimental studies. Students explore their own creativity in the context of the long tradition of painting. Students are encouraged to produce a body of work that can be incorporated into a professional-quality portfolio. Pass/Fail Option. Offered Spring only.
