About the course

Painting students at UAB begin with an intense, academic, oil painting course, which focuses upon elements of contrast while painting the still life and portraiture. This course provides the student with the knowledge base and strong skill set to develop the confidence to advance toward more personally driven objectives, whether that be a continued interest in observational painting, or expressive, abstract, experimental or a combination of these directions. At the intermediate level students are free to choose their medium and are challenged with a range of assignments designed to push their understanding of the medium as well as develop their own creative and critical thinking when making their art. At the advanced level painting students are charged with developing a self-designed course of study, which focuses upon their personal interests with paint and art-making while still being challenged technically and conceptually by the professor and their peers.
