    Recognizing Strengths, Self-confidence, Self-efficacy I can use my knowledge of my strengths, weaknesses and future hopes to set a goal and plan to make positive change.

    #17 Drawing is About Mark Making “Every mark has a distinct character and quality.Every mark is a signature. Variations in pressure and weight is the visual equivalent of intonation. Marks, or lines, of consistent weight or thickness surrounding a figure or object will flatten the image. Tapering or breaking a line in a curve can connote a highlight or make the curve flow. Also, a tentative line will read as such. Give every mark or line authority and make sure it serves a purpose. Try to use only the marks you need.” 101 Things Learned in Art School, Kit White, 2011, MIT Press

      Let’s Make Some ART!

      “Art isn’t a luxury. Art is a necessity“

      Alvaro Batrington.

      Quote from his interview on “A Brush With” The Art Newspaper

      Learn To Draw “Drawing is more than a tool for rendering and capturing likenesses. It is a language, with its own syntax, grammar, and urgency. Learning to draw is about learning to see. In this way, it is a metaphor for all art activity. Whatever its form, drawing transforms perception and thought into image and teaches us how to think with our eyes.”
