Static images deliver the information they contain instantly. But they also have the capacity to reveal the whole process of their making, as well as the depth of their narrative, over an extended period of investigation, meditation, and analysis. Paintings are especially unique in this quality. Good art never stops revealing itself. And though the eye can take in an image in its totality in an instant, great images reveal their secrets slowly. The more complex an image, the slower the revelation. 101 Things to Learn in Art School Kit White © 2011 Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Kit White
Stained Glass: 10 pieces? Done? Foiled?
- 1.1Ac: Individually or collaboratively formulate new creative problems based on student’s existing artwork
- 2.1Ac: Through experimentation, practice, and persistence, demonstrate acquisition of skills and knowledge in a chosen art form.
- Looking at the week ahead of you… how many pieces should you be working on resolving so that you are staying up to speed with the project? Remember that we should be shooting for 4 or five pieces a day – take the cut stuff home to wrap!
BY THE WAY: everything-stained-glass.com is a good site for your own personal research.
CIaD: Critique – Photoshop this week! ALL LATE WORK IS DUE FRIDAY!

Drawing: German Expressionism – Final Week
- 1.1Ac: Individually or collaboratively formulate new creative problems based on student’s existing artwork
- 2.1Ac: Through experimentation, practice, and persistence, demonstrate acquisition of skills and knowledge in a chosen art form.
- How did the critique from last Friday help you see the image you have in front of you in a new way? What are you hoping to do differently now that you have had a chance to look at the work from more than an arms length? What about your studio mates work did you see that will help you with your own work?
AP Studio Art: Concentration

- 2.3Ad: Demonstrate in works of art or design how visual and material culture defines, shapes, enhances, inhibits, and/or empowers people’s lives.
- Concentration works need to be the FOCUS of the hours this week. It is important that you are on task – it you are not then the ideas of the “Artists Habits of Mind” are being missed.Page 18 in the handbook.What do you need to do this week to keep things on track?
Adv. Drawing: Abstract Drawing – Final Crit coming up!

- We will be critiquing at the end of the week -Wednesday and Thursday – Friday if necessary. This will be a process as we need to have a large space to display them and then be able to step back and look. Wednesday we start by going outside with spray fixative and set the charcoal on the paper
