ARTS 063 - Visual Concepts and Processes: Materials and Practice of Painting


Semester Offered: First Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 credits
Attribute: 4HU

Frida Kahlo, a Mexican Surrealist painter, is quoted as saying, "The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration." This course will teach students to develop a fluid process of working that is strong enough to generate the need for critical thinking and technique. Without a strong process the technique can become a replacement for the desire and need to work. This course will ask students to enter fully into the material and process of painting and to nurture what emerges through that process.
