Capturing a Sense of Place

Susan Lichtman
Throughout the fall semester, students taking the Intermediate Painting course worked in acrylic paint on paper, media that would allow them the flexibility to paint anywhere — on campus or off, inside or outside. For six weeks, they completed one-day plein-air paintings at various sites. Here, they work on a spit of land that juts out into the Charles River, about a 10-minute walk from the Brandeis art studios.
