ART 382 Painting: Problems and Approaches
This course is designed to build upon students' abilities to render the human form and to hone their visual problem solving skills. The focus of the class is to increase technical abilities of the students so that they may more confidently express themselves in a two dimensional form with both drawing and painting media. Through concentrated in-class life studies, projects, and class critiques, students will foster new ways to render the human figure with confidence. The course approaches the techniques in a cumulative manner. It begins with simple line studies and ends with the glazing techniques used by the Old Masters. The course is open to beginning through intermediate drawing and painting students. Students should have taken one of the following prerequisites: 201 or 202 or 381, or may enroll in the course with the Instructor's permission.
