Academic Profile
Professor Mulhern teaches a wide range of drawing courses for undergraduates. In addition to Drawing I: Foundations, a core course, he also teaches courses that deal with approaches to problems found in drawing today such as Large Scale and Thematic Drawing, Drawing in Another Dimension, and The Figure in Composition. These courses reflect his own researches and the changes in his work, which is moving from sculpture to painting. Professor Mulhern also team teaches with Professor John Steczynski, Drawing I: Issues and Approaches, the introductory drawing class for studio majors and minors. He currently oversees the studio minor and conducts the final seminar for minors Studio: Critical Issues each spring term.
In all his courses, Professor Mulhern is interested in fostering the development of each individual student's personal vision, utilizing the disciplined techniques of the 'academic' tradition tempered with the free-associative views of contemporary pursuits.
