About the course

The Painting and Drawing area offers a wide range of undergraduate courses in both painting and drawing. Taught by a range of faculty, courses incorporate intensive studio work, individual and group discussions and critiques, and lectures and presentations. Drawing introduces students to the relationships between seeing, thinking and making, and is a prerequisite for upper division studio courses. Drawing can both inform student?s work in other areas and lead to more advanced study in drawing practices. In introductory, intermediate, and advanced courses, students can explore a range of methods and materials as well as differing approaches to spatial construction, visual problem solving, and how meaning is created. Beginning painting introduces students to the basic techniques and practices of oil painting, as well as ways of translating visual experience and constructing meaning through painting. Upper division courses in painting and drawing explore more complex problems of meaning, form, materials, and language, and emphasize the development of an independent practice. Our objective is for students to develop critical thinking skills and an understanding of the history and context of painting and contemporary concerns as they cultivate their own work. Students experience a broad range of approaches and are encouraged to develop a painting practice that is relevant to their own ideas and sensibility, informed by a keen awareness of developments in contemporary art practice.
