Painting: Realism the Psyche

3 Credits · Level: Undergraduate

This course moves away from observational painting and explores the imagination and visual dynamism within the juxtaposition of the real and the unreal, blurring the boundaries between dream and reality and consciousness and the subconscious. Students will produce three projects - each covering a highly individualized subject matter. Relevant art historical references and resources will be introduced for students to contextualize their work. Assignments begun in class will require time outside of class to develop and complete. Medium: either oil or acrylic.
