Description:

This studio art course teaches interested students to paint landscapes both in the studio and outdoors. Students will paint landscapes, both directly on location and indirectly in the studio through studio window views, photographic sources, from drawings and sketches and directed from compositional models. While the course teaches the basic building blocks of landscape as they have been derived from the great landscape painting traditions of world art, students will also be encouraged to utilize their personal reactions and creative responses to the ideology of landscape. Students will have the opportunity to decide what they want to express and communicate about landscape in their paintings. The class will be given the essential conventions of landscape painting and will gain knowledge of how these conventions have been interpreted by various artists and their approaches to painting.
