ARTS 2120 - Intermediate Painting


4.5 Credits
This studio course builds on the technical skills and concepts learned in Elementary Painting. Emphasis is on expanding color and paint manipulation skills with more emphasis on content. Exposure to mixed media and digital media drawing tools is encouraged but optional. Subject matter may include objects, still life, spatial issues, the figure and non-objective abstraction. Modern and contemporary painting strategies are explored and some projects may be theme based. The purpose of this course is to create an environment where student painters can synthesize ideas from prior learning and problem-solve in ways that more closely resemble the methods of professional studio painters. Critiques and group discussions address form and content as they relate to visual communication. Students are encouraged to find personal solutions to painting problems and to develop at least one project of their own design.

Prerequisites: (1) ARTS 2020  must be completed prior to taking this course.
Lec: 2.5 Lab: 6 Cr: 4.5
