Course Goals
This painting course is intended to prepare the student to handle problems of greater visual and conceptual complexity. The figure is the primary subject; there is both competency and conceptual component to the course, that is, the student is expected to become effective in using this medium to resolve the given problems, and to develop individual qualities.

Course Regulations
• Facilitating or perpetrating “zoom bombing” will result in immediate referral to the UW Community Standards & Student Conduct team, with possible consequences of receiving an F for the class and expulsion from the University.
• You must sign in with your UW NetID and password  (please bookmark the page) before joining each Zoom meeting. This procedure will prevent unauthorized users from gaining access to class sessions held in Zoom. Everyone in our class must update one's personal profile with a current photo of oneself so that the instructor can see everyone's face during class.
• Participation in the class is one of the essential requirements for the course. Active involvement in-class critiques, peer reviews, and discussions will reflect the student's understanding of course materials, and receiving feedback from the instructor as well as from classmates will be crucial for every student's learning in the class. When the class is taught remotely, to facilitate your participation, everyone must maintain both audio and video functions properly during the entire quarter.
• You are responsible for getting the information and assignments you missed from your classmates. • Within the class time in the classroom, you should not do homework for other classes, and turn off all your other electronic devices.
• Each week and each class, assignments, or parts of assignments, will be due. Expect approximately 10 to 15 hours of homework a week, or 2 hours per weekday outside of the class.
• The instructor only grades classroom assignments which are supervised by the instructor in the classroom, and homework that is given by the instructor.
• If the class is taught remotely, you should submit all your assignment work via this course site on CANVAS. Any submission via email to the instructor will not be accepted nor graded.
• Missing assignments will adversely affect your final grade. Missing one assignment will cut one letter grade off your final grade. Late work will result in lowered grades (at least one letter grade, e.g. from A to B, or from 3.8 to 2.8).

Grading
4 (A) Excellent Work that exceeds the requirements of the assignment and performance expectation of the class.
3 (B) Above average work that demonstrates a thorough understanding of the assignment, with enthusiastic participation in the class.
2 (C) Average work that meets the minimum course requirements.
1 (D) Below average work with minimal involvement in the class.
0 (F) Failure to accomplish the requirements of the assignment.

Final Grade
50% assignment work
30% final project
20% participation 

Grading Criteria
All work for this class should be approached with a high degree of professionalism. Attendance is required for all class sessions. If you miss a class for any reason, it is your responsibility to contact fellow classmates to make up the work. Please make every effort to be on time. Arriving late is seen as a lack of interest and a sign of disrespect for your colleagues. Work that is not ready at the beginning of class will not be critiqued. Late work is heavily discouraged and will not be accepted without prior permission. Grading is based on the quality of your work during the quarter (both visually and conceptually); on your design process (the extent of exploration and variation throughout each project) and on participation in group discussions and critiques. Please note: there will be no opportunity for revisions on any projects this quarter.

A 3.8–4.0 is given to a student who has exhibited the highest possible performance in all aspects of the course—final projects, the design process and participation are excellent. This student independently seeks out additional information on design and is highly committed/passionate about their work.

A 3.4–3.7 is given to a student who exhibits superior performance in all aspects of the course—the final projects, design process, and participation are uniformly of high quality. This student has a thorough understanding of all concepts presented, and is motivated to improve and succeed.

A 2.9–3.3 is given to a student who has good performance in most aspects of the course. This student follows a thorough design process, has good design work, and consistent participation that reflects a clear understanding of almost all concepts being presented.

A 2.5–2.8 is given to a student who has fair performance in the course. The final work is adequate, with a design process that reflects the minimum needed to complete assignments. Participation and motivation are moderate.

A 0.0–2.4 is given to a student with poor performance in the course. Projects are incorrectly prepared, incomplete or missing. This student does not understand the majority of concepts presented and rarely participates in class. This student is not prepared for subsequent courses in design.

Final Critique & Portfolio
1) The final includes presenting a portfolio, handing in the final assignment, and the final critique function as the final. During the scheduled final of the course, the instructor will give the final critique. Everyone must attend the scheduled final in person; failure to do so will result in receiving an F for the course. The schedule is posted on the UW website at www.washington.edu/students/reg/calendar.html

2) At the end of the quarter, submit a portfolio of all work and only work for this course. In the portfolio, clearly write your name, course number, and project name on the back of each of your pieces. And put work in chronological order, from the first project to last.

3) Due date: Complete portfolios are due at the beginning of the last class of the quarter. Late portfolio will result in course failure.

Reading
There is no specific tex for this class; however, there will be books placed on reserve in the library from which individual references will be suggested to students.
