Visual Arts

Students in Trinity’s fine arts program encounter diversity and beauty in 2-D and 3-D art and promote creativity, self-expression, and communication through art. Our program consists of studio art courses, painting, and advanced studio. In these courses, students learn to draw with perspective, use watercolor, oil, acrylic, and tempera paint, throw pottery, sculpt, create mixed media works, engage with photography, and ultimately view the world through a different lens.
