This course is for painters with a solid technical foundation, designed to deepen your understanding of color, composition, and material while helping to refine your personal artistic voice. Through open-ended prompts and advanced technical studies, you’ll explore inventive approaches to painting, working in series, using limited color palettes, and blending realism with creative elements. The class balances structure with opportunities for self-directed projects, gradually offering more freedom as you develop confidence and intention in your work. By studying both historical and contemporary painters, you’ll leave with the tools to build a generative studio practice that bridges technical skill with conceptual exploration. Open to painters of all mediums. Please bring your ideas, photographs, and painting supplies to the first class.
