This class involves learning the complexities of painting directly from life. Dual emphasis on exploration paint and surface, as well as the figure will be developed. This course will cover the history and appreciation of contemporary painting and will cover a wide range of painting techniques. Students will work up to developing their own personal style within the confines of academic figurative art.

ART
I think art is any motion of life that one finds is worth there time to master. One of the things that distinguishes you from the others is your perception. Your perception even though finite can have infinite possibilities. An artist is a person that has found elegance within a certain craft. For some the elegance may be non-elegant and may include painting fresh blood all over a wall and calling it "Art" but that motion is not the point. For others an ink pen or paintbrush will subdue to being conventional enough for them to feel accepted. A major part of art for most is acceptance of expression and knowing that your perception is worth its weight in gold within criteria of the self. When observing daily actions one can sometimes find artistic elegance within the smallest qualities of the world. Sometimes I find elegance when a bus driver pules up two inches parallel to the curb or even when someone composes themselves well against a person that has no composure. I think we all have artistic qualities within but the the thing that distinguishes artists is that we have noticed these qualities that are possible. Once noticed it becomes a finite world with infinite possibilities. In regards towards the assessment of artwork I personally only assess an artist's work relative towards there idea. If there idea is to stick the middle finger towards the government than i am looking for a middle finger composed so well that it could be said it is the hand from 85% of the population. The only time art can be good or bad is when you relate it towards your ideas and expect.... Art when assessing is about relativity and how relative it is towards you and your comrades.
