AP Studio Art: WORK on CONCENTRATION
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.
What response do you have regarding your studio mate’s works – really – that can help them see things that they might not see – things that might help them continue to learn from their own works and marks? Take 5 minutes and walk around – take a look – make some thoughts for MONDAY (the extended deadline).
Brayden – This group of Photos is for YOU.
WHAT’s the Assignment? If you need another 1, 2, or 3 concentration works – this is your assignment (one at the minimum). You will have your WEBSITE updated with 12 concentration works – PERIOD. You will rework your statements and answers to the AP Questions… ALL DUE on APRIL 3 for CRITIQUE & PRESENTATION.
