Painting and Drawing Track
The painting and drawing program offers opportunities for the beginning student to build basic skills and understanding from observational painting in lower-division course work, and advances to greater specialization and self-direction in upper-division work. Students in the painting track are also encouraged to complete a variety of courses outside of painting, such as drawing and printmaking, which facilitates the integration of technique and personal vision.
The emphasis in painting and drawing is on fine art, preparing the student for graduate work, a career in a gallery or museum, or continuing development as a professional artist or art teacher.
The painting and drawing program is housed in two new, large studios, complete with state-of-the-art ventilation and north light. One room is dedicated to advanced students, including some individual studio spaces. Graduate studios are separate. Painting facilities include book and image collections, separate brush cleaning stations, and solvent storage rooms.
Students should meet with their advisor to determine recommended course sequence based on individual needs and course availability.
