Students majoring in art at the lower-division level concentrate on learning the basic theoretical concepts, techniques, skills, and materials of drawing, painting, or watercolor. By learning these basics in a step-by-step process, students develop a better understanding of their powers of observation and self-expression. In addition, students will learn to appreciate historical works of art and architecture through required surveys in order to better articulate their own ideas and aesthetic concepts as a part of a longstanding visual tradition. Students may prepare to transfer into upper-careers in graphic arts, drawing, painting, photography, and advertising will find the major especially helpful. The Visual Arts faculty recommends that the art major not choose an art course to fulfill the general education requirement in Fine Arts and Languages, but explore one of the other arts, such as music, writing, theatre arts, or photography.
