Advanced Painting (PTG 481/482)

This course is for students wishing to continue their study after successfully completing intermediate painting or for anyone who has had substantial experience in oil painting and drawing. The emphasis of the course is on developing conceptual, expressive, and technical skills in order to understand what it means to create a mature body of work. Students will initially be taken through a series of technical exercizes in order to refine painting skills. For the latter part of the semester, students will focus on a project that develops a more personal expression while utilizing the technical knowledge gained in the course. Students will be required to complete a resolved work, or series of works, that may take the form of painting or mixed media. Beginning Painting Intermediate Painting Advanced Painting
