A studio/performance-oriented course that introduces students to skills and elements of observational painting. Still-life and the figure provide the subject matter for observing color, light, form and space. The course explores the power and energy of composition and investigates the many painterly properties of oil paint. Through slide presentations and visits to local museums and galleries, students extend their knowledge of historical and contemporary art based on observation.
