Painting at COFA is interpreted broadly in terms of media and approach and is underpinned by the
understanding that the techniques and methodologies of painting, as a field of practice, are a
living continuum from the traditional to the contemporary.
Painting studies cover historical and contemporary concepts and techniques in the context of
