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.
