This course challenges the student with several in-depth projects that will encourage the development of individual themes through independent studio practice. Students will be expected, in both verbal and written form, to situate their artistic explorations within historical and contemporary approaches in painting. Studio work will be complemented by critical individual and group discussion as well as through research of pertinent approaches and concepts in historical and contemporary painting. The ongoing development of a personal portfolio of work is also expected of the student.

Prerequisite: Fine Arts Studio 281ab, formerly FIN 281
