Painting

A stroke of the brush, a splash of color. This is your happy place, the creative space within which you express yourself. Refine your skills with various techniques that enable you to excel with painting.

Overview

Adapting skills-based learning and research methodologies, the University of South Florida painting program supports art-making as a process of inquiry that is continually sharpened by experience, knowledge and practice. Faculty work closely with students in their painting practice and to consider art within international, national and regional contexts.


Undergraduate Program

At beginning levels, working from observation conveys visual principles of form and space while emphasizing essentials of technical training. Intermediate courses focus on various topics such as the figure, printmaking, mixed media, digital processes, global landscapes, and color theory; special topics courses reflect faculty research interests.

Intermediate courses also introduce theoretical and cultural ideas through projects that prepare students for the tutorial nature of advanced coursework.

At the advanced level, painting and drawing disciplines combine. Students develop a body of work and conceptual framework for their visual practice. Students may apply for private 24-hour access studios.

Graduate Program

Our nationally ranked Master of Fine Arts degree is an idea-centered program encouraging broad media exploration, in-depth projects and engagement with theoretical and cultural issues.

The MFA program encourages our graduate students to take advantage of excellent private studio space, technical facilities and the opportunity to teach. Graduate students receive focused, individual attention in their studio work from professionally active research and teaching faculty. In their first year, graduate students work closely with faculty as graduate assistants, often helping in their courses and gain experience to teach independently. In their studio work and pedagogy, MFA students are integral to the area鈥檚 mission for delivering contemporaneous content.
