Representing the subtlety and nuance of the variety of color, perspective, and form observed in the world requires a diverse range of technical and conceptual skills necessary for creating realist paintings from observation. The development of these skills is the focus of this course and includes the creation of the illusion of depth; proportion; anatomy; control of texture and smoothness to create a convincing paint surface; and utilization of value, hue and intensity to convey a sense of light and form. Additionally students learn about issues in realist painting in the context of other painting modes. Prerequisites: DRAW 200, PNTG 203.
