About the course

The Painting concentration offers an array of undergraduate courses in both painting and drawing. Taught by a range of faculty, courses incorporate intensive studio work, group critiques, and lectures and presentations. The Painting concentration prepares students for independent artistic practice or graduate school. Majors are provided with shared studio space, and are expected to develop a rigorous studio practice. The Art Department at CatholicU builds on its central role in the influential Washington Color School, where painting luminaries such as Kenneth Noland once taught here. All art majors take full advantage of our D.C. location through internships and frequent field trips. Our aim is for students to leave the program with an understanding of their artistic intentions, strategies for sustaining an artistic practice, and an understanding of the historical context and contemporary possibilities of painting and drawing.
