PNTDR-1080: Materials and Methods

Course Description

This course covers the 'how' and 'why' of preparing supports and surfaces, making and applying paint, and constructing paintings in a technically sound way with hand-made traditional western and eastern painting materials. Lectures, demonstrations, museum visits, reading, and student research will complement the hands-on studio experience of painting. Open to anyone with an interest in painting, this class could be beneficial if you are just beginning to paint or if you are already experienced and would like more precise information and a greater practical understanding.
