Painting as if Your Life Depended on It (ART 215)
Painting is a dynamic and insightful process of self-reflection, expression, and creative problem solving. In this course, students will use varied techniques with water-based paints and inks in weekly exercises designed to stretch creative boundaries and defy expectations. We will have interactive group critiques involving themes crucial to the creative process, such as spontaneity versus control, discipline, critical thinking, and questioning assumptions about "good" versus "bad" art. Included in this course will be slide lectures, class readings, and short writing projects intended to energize and support our painting practice. The ultimate goal of this course is for students to pursue a personal, free-form exploration of painting while expanding concepts of what it means to create art.
Recent college or extension-level courses (or similar experience)
in painting is required. Students must bring waterbased
paints (acrylic, watercolor, gouache, etc.) or inks,
brushes, containers for water, and a surface to paint on
(paper, canvas, etc.) to the first class. This course will be
offered Credit/No Credit only.
