Painting
“Painting is the dynamic synthesis of simple materials with a driving personal vision. The transformative qualities of paint continue to astonish and challenge the imagination.”—Kim Krause, faculty
The contemporary practice of painting encompasses a diverse set of possibilities, ranging from the traditional to the abstract and non-objective. The painting faculty supports a community of learners who experience painting as an exciting expressive medium and who pursue technical and conceptual mastery in the discipline. We nurture your individual voice.
Students majoring in painting are taught by professional artists who maintain an active studio practice, significant depth of engagement, and a passion for the visual arts. Upon graduation, successful students are prepared to begin their careers as exhibiting artists or continue their education in graduate school.
