Advanced Painting will take interested students further into the exploration of their personal vision and style as artists. Students will work in a variety of paint media and techniques, including watercolor, acrylic, ink, block printing and mixed media. Students will learn how to design and execute murals, stretch and prepare canvas for painting, do multiple color block linoleum and wood cut prints, and work in a cohesive series. The study of painting from all periods of history will be included, as well as analysis of individual art styles and formal movements from a social and historical perspective. Students will learn to look at painting with a more critical eye, as a way to not only understand what other artists are trying to do, but also as a means of improving their own work.
