DESCRIPTION
The overarching purpose of the studio painting courses, at all levels, is to develop the student's capacity to look both into the visible world and into themselves with the intention of transforming their vision into art. The student is led gradually toward a deeper understanding of the relationship between natural and artistic forms. This is achieved through disciplined study in the landscape, through portraiture and model work and museum study. Combined total of 6 hours of instruction per week in both the studio and outside in the landscape, as well as excursions to European museums.
