ARTS 062 - VisPro Painting: On Location

Mode(s) of Instruction: Hybrid
FC ARHU

4 credits
This landscape course uses the tools and practice of painting, drawing and observation to explore the local environment and to develop a sense of place. The 19th century Romantic constructions of nature are ingrained in us through the powerful history of American landscape painting and can prevent us from seeing the world we live in. To disrupt this tendency, students will be brought into ‘the field’ to work from and engage with the history, geography, agriculture and industry in N.E. Ohio. Students will be able to express the true value of place, and explore its real virtues and problems in an effort to build understanding, increase awareness and to effect change. Field trips required.
Prerequisites & Notes: Not a lab, but a studio course.
Does this course require off campus field trips? Yes

Course Last Offered/Scheduled: Spring 2021
