“Nothing in life that’s worth anything is easy.” – Barack Obama, SOTU 2014

Drawing: Books and Oil Pastels
Reflect: Learning to think and talk with others about an aspect of one’s work or working process, and learning to judge one’s own work and working process and the work of others.
How have you changed in the process since you have begun? How are you drawing DIFFERENTLY than you did PRIOR to this Drawing?

Have you improved your drawings skills over the past few days? What is the biggest success you have accomplished this week? Where are you struggling?
Studio Art 360: BALANCE and Organic Objects
2.1P: Engage in making a work of art or design without having a preconceived plan.
What kind of balance do you find you prefer? Symmetry? Approximate Symmetry? Radial? Asymmetry?

What type of balance have you chosen to use? What are three reasons you chose this direction to go with?
Let’s Look at LINE use and PATTERNS
Advanced Drawing: Begin with Fast Food
2.1Ac: Through experimentation, practice, and persistence, demonstrate acquisition of skills and knowledge in a chosen art form.
Looking over your ideas from yesterday – which ONE stands out as successful and WHY? What type of composition (looking at the handout from today) would you say it is most like?

What have you done to begin your final composition today? What ARTIST HABIT OF MIND are you thinking about – or maybe you are considering the levels in the rubric as you continue to develop your artistic skills? Janet Fish:
AP Studio Art: Mid Crit – HANDS and Object
SHORT PARAGRAPHS PLEASE – The paragraphs are nice to see in the Art and Fear images on the website – short little descriptions to help the image along. We are always working to help our viewers understand. Where else do you need to explain your images? The AP TEST! This is practice!
3.1Ad: Reflect on, re-engage, revise, and refine works of art or design considering relevant traditional and contemporary criteria as well as personal artistic vision.
As you get your photographs back – what NEW materials are you thinking about using? Are you going to try and use the techniques that you are already comfortable with? What are you doing to EXPAND and EXPLORE?

How have you used your skills to develop this one (or more – hopefully more) drawing to really demonstrate the AP LEVEL 6 skills you have?
