Art and Art History: Painting and Drawing

The Painting major is designed to maximize the creative potential of individual students by offering new challenges in many expressive techniques, including oils, acrylics, watercolor, gouache, casein, and egg tempera. Studies are done from still life, figure, landscape, and a variety of experimental approaches are explored. In-residence landscape painting courses are regularly conducted in a variety of locations, including the New Jersey shore, mountain areas in the eastern United States and in Europe.
