Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Art - Painting and Drawing

For undergraduates the first step to successful work in painting & drawing is a firm basis in the fundamentals of drawing and design (2D and 3D)—essential components of first-year foundations courses. After exploring other disciplines, students interested in painting & drawing continue through intermediate and advanced drawing and painting courses that build technical proficiency and a contextual understanding of artistic practice. Class time is divided between in-class projects, either assigned or independent—where instructors address practical and technical issues in individual and group critiques. Interaction with visiting artists and critics provides alternative perspectives and reinforces a sense of professionalism. During the fourth year, undergraduate students are provided with individual studios. The culmination of the undergraduate curriculum is the senior project, for which students develop an individual aesthetic direction and body of work that is exhibited to the public in the Bachelor of Fine Art Show at Foster Gallery.
