The painting department was all the way up on the 5th floor, and while being really nice, it felt so hot and stuffy and claustrophobic to me. And while looking airy and light, it actually felt cramped:
So I was happy to hear that the painting department headquarters had moved to newer offices, and that the studios for third year students were in a different building all together. They are in the "What Cheer" building (the What what?), and each studio space will be allocated with a lottery. The class is called Painting III and it's a 6 credit class but it happens over two days - Thursdays from 1pm - 6pm and Fridays 9am - 1pm. That's a lot of class time.
Third year or "junior" classes will be more self directed, but with a lot of critique. There are two other Painting III classes being held on different days.
I'm not sure where I'll go with painting this year, probably continue with abstract mixing together with figurative.
Junior painting studios:
At any rate, it's comforting to know that these painting studios also double as a fall out shelter.
