The first course of the Oxbow semester is team-taught across disciplines. Each section works with a pair of teachers--one art faculty and one humanities faculty--in a course designed to explore the overarching theme of Observation. Sculpture and History are paired, New Media and English are a team, and Painting and Science combine forces. What follows is a selection of sketchbook pages from the Painting + Environmental Science course, in which students took on the role of campus naturalists and carefully observed hidden spots in the Oxbow gardens. Using Thoreau's essay Autumnal Tints for inspiration, they recorded, sketched, dissected, and questioned their surroundings.
