'Studio Practices' is the first course in a sequence of three professional practices courses intended for Art majors. This particular studio course will introduce second-year students to the wide range of processes, materials and approaches in historical and contemporary art-making through trips to museums and galleries, and studio-based work. Students will develop their own habits of making and utilize their community of peers for support and insight through exposure to professional artists' studios, learning the dynamics of different art communities, studying artist interviews, and reading art journals, exhibition catalogues, and online publications. The importance of maintaining a sketchbook, documenting work throughout production, discussing and writing about art (their own, their peers' and professional artists') will build a foundation for their own studio practice while encouraging experimentation and the development of a personal voice.
