  • How did you take FIRST HALF of the mid crit yesterday? What does the critique REALLY do to help you with your work? Stop and THINK ABOUT THIS. Do not just blow this off… why is the reflection important and helpful in the LEARNING?

What is the part of the painting that helps to UNIFY it all? Are you using LINES to unify the work? Are you using COLOR to unify it all? Are you using something else? Take a moment and look at the work from a distance and consider if it is unified? EXPLAIN.

AP Studio Art – CRIT TIME!

Tonight at MIDNIGHT CHAPTER 6 is due in Art and Fear Blog. Who’s NOT READING?

Even Vincent Van Gogh – a man head of his time – but not appreciated in his time – used a sketchbook to paint the works that seem to be so spontaneous.

Goals:

  • 2.1Ad: Experiment, plan, and make multiple works of art and design that explore a personally meaningful theme, idea, or concept.
  • What can you talk to Mr. Korb about regarding your new works in concentration? Take a moment and write out a brief thought. Let’s get focused.

How did / are your new ideas coming along? Any PROBLEMS that you see coming up right away? 

Thanks for the nod towards my thoughts on communicating with Parents, Students and the WORLD on Teach.Com. I appreciate the recognition.
