These conventions of painting include: color mixing, paint application, building your own canvas, and the creation of ideas through sketching and the use of the computer. There will be investigations into both representational and abstract forms. The beginning projects will focus on the student learning how paint functions and not to be so concerned about the finished product. As each student gains technical confidence, we will explore assignments through historical art movements and contemporary trends. There will be an emphasis on creativity and problem-solving skills.
