Over the weekend, look at BOTH of your artworks and consider their meaning. What are you trying to communicate with them? What is the significance in 2012 of the works you have / are crating? Look up 2 artists that deal with conceptual ideas of the mind (ie: 16 habits of the mind) and someone who works on plants / flowers in their work. What do you see as similar and / or different between your work and their work? I want, on crit. day, for you to be able to briefly speak about the works they make / made and the work you have produced.

If you finished your mannequin drawing, what object(s) from the box did you choose and why? Whick type of composition did you choose to use? Why? What do YOU hope to gain from the idea of a still life drawing (chiaroscuro / figure ground / positive and negative space)?
