Learning outcomes
During the course, students get acquainted (both theoretically and practically) with basic painting techniques and their application on grounds of various qualities. They use various painting techniques and their combinations, for example: Indian ink, aquarelle, gouache, tempera, both dry and oil pastels, wax colours, etc. At the same time, they are taught to be able to decide themselves, which technology and painting technique is the most adequate one for the particular artistic task or assignment, and also, which way is the most convenient related to their gradually developing creative expression and opinion. Assignments in the sphere of figurative painting get more difficult in time, from a still life and an object up to a head and figure (half figures and figures). Students have an opportunity to study a figure according to a live model. The painting course is based on gradual cultivating the student's expression and style with emphasis on purposeful expression. Besides figurative painting, students can also go in for abstract painting or interdisciplinary overlaps towards other graphic techniques. Teaching cannot be divided into weekly schedules - the pedagogical approach is strongly individualized, reflecting preferences and skills of the given group.
