In this course, students take a materialist approach to painting. With a focus on oil and water-based pigments, students explore mixed-media and experimental painting methods, and learn varied traditions of color theory and surface techniques through prompt-based assignments. This class includes working with sites and collections on campus--like the Botanic Garden, Smith Archives, or Design Thinking--to practice idea generation and consider ways to incorporate different themes and visual resources into our studio practice. Prerequisite: ARS 163. Enrollment limited to 18. Instructor permission required.

[CE] ARS 163

Permission is required for interchange registration during the add/drop period only.
