Painting
The painting course offers the interested art student his/her first in-depth study of the application of water-soluble painting media, including watercolor and acrylic paints.  The course reinforces what the student has learned previously regarding color theory, design, composition and problem solving and is designed to encourage creativity.  Students are introduced to prominent historical and contemporary painters and movements.  Aesthetic judgment and the evaluation of their own work and the work of others is an important aspect of the course.  Drawing skills are required and necessary to complete assignments.
