Students with an emphasis in painting learn technical fundamentals and explore a variety of painting languages. At the advanced level students are encouraged to pursue a direction of their choice that is aesthetically and conceptually vital. They may pursue a two-dimensional and/or three-dimensional approach to form. Formal, conceptual, and critical considerations, and openness to new ideas are important. Respect for tradition as well as receptivity to and engagement with contemporary practices is encouraged. One of the goals at the advanced and senior project-level is the establishment of a competitive portfolio and preparation for graduate work.
