    Art (Painting)

    About

    A BFA from UWG with a concentration in painting prepares students to establish a professional studio, and provides readiness for a range of professional engagements such as exhibitions, work in museum and commercial art galleries work, art handling, art restoration and consulting, illustration, and teaching, as well as graduate-level studies.
    The UWG Painting Program offers a comprehensive curriculum covering traditional and new painting methodologies including oil, watercolor, acrylic, and encaustic mediums, and mixed media approaches. Visual awareness and artistic analysis are central to the student's development of visual vocabulary, formal syntax, expressive fluency, and conceptual intentions. Students are challenged to question their encounters with the world and to explore it for fresh insights. Establishing personal ways of seeing and interpreting themselves and their world visually directly prepares students to contribute to the domain of visual culture in both private and public spheres. For more information, please see the Academic Catalog. A program map, which provides a guide for students to plan their course of study, is available for download in the Courses tab below.
