PAINTING I
ART 103-97, Friday 9:30-1:30

PAINTING I
ART 103-95, Tuesday 12:30-4:30

This class is about painting in oil.

We will consider the question: what makes a painting alive? Instruction in the use of various painting materials will be available in the case of individual questions about these. The intention of the class is to provide students with expressive tools which they can then use to amplify their own ideas. Prerequisite: None / 3 credits.
