studio art
Hands-on visual creation
Studio art refers to hands-on artistic practice—drawing, painting, sculpture, ceramics, printmaking—as distinguished from art history or theory.
The term appears mainly in academic contexts, where a studio art major or course emphasizes making art rather than studying it: She's taking studio art this semester.
The studio is the workspace where such creation happens.
