Figure Painting
Winter 2023
Professor Deborah Howard
These paintings are the final project of Figure Painting. Students painted two models for two class sessions and then theft the backgrounds unfinished. Then the class spent the last weekend of the quarter at the Kennedy Mountain Campus (KMC), near Red Feather Lakes, Colorado. Students were inspired by the natural environment to create the backgrounds and resolve the paintings. They hiked through trees and around a frozen lake surrounded by towering rocks. They also went out at night to star gaze and a few watched the sunrise. The experience was magical, and they resolved their paintings in unique and original ways.
