The two undergraduate painting studios are 2,500 square foot spaces with 20-foot ceilings and large skylights.

Students are encouraged to develop individual expressive and conceptual points of view and to find the technical means to convey them. The open, creative environment in painting provides a fertile ground for all modes of painting, from representational and abstract works to those that offer a critique of the medium itself. Painting at UMCP takes place in small classes where daily individual contact with the professors and frequent group critiques form the basis of instruction.
