Boxes, Objects, COMPOSITION!

Goals:

  • 2.1Ac: Through experimentation, practice, and persistence, demonstrate acquisition of skills and knowledge in a chosen art form.
  • Most young artists work with their FIRST idea and that’s it. What might the benefit be to begin with MORE ideas? When you sketch in your sketchbooks / artworks… where do you mostly get your ideas from?  How do you define OBSERVATION?

Reflection / Evaluation: What skills do you hope to develop this year in Drawing? What do you feel you will be able to improve on regarding the skills you have currently?
