“Never tell a young person that anything cannot be done. God may have been waiting centuries for someone ignorant enough of the impossible to do that very thing.” — John Andrew Holmes

  • Focus on the figure, Proportions, Scale, Sighting In
  • Full Page, Composition
  • AP and AdDraw: How did looking at the video yesterday give you a new insight / appreciation for the process of drawing?Today – a FULL period on the work and NOT having to erase it may help you move the process forward. Are you still afraid of erasing as you progress through your drawing?

AP and AdDraw: What are you struggling with in the drawing today? What HELD YOU BACK?

GOALS:

  • 1.2P: Shape an artistic investigation of an aspect of present-day life using a contemporary practice of art or design.
  • What stories could you tell using a camera that documents your present-day life? What could you do to make an everyday “boring” part of the day interesting and inviting? Let’s use today in the hallway to “Document” some of what you might do in the hallway.

What did you do with the camera to make the BORING interesting? Remember – it is not the subject that makes an interesting image, it is the composition. July 4th Camper, Yosemite Valley copyright Ted Orland.
