The course is designed to challenge you as a creative being. The first challenge will be to ponder your theme for this semester. The theme will lend to a cohesive body of work at the end of this semester. Each project will have several components. An explanation and point values for all the projects and their components are listed below. While we read through each project be thinking of your theme and how it could fit into each project. Before the project: The to do list must be presented to Mrs. Off. Your SKBK is due the same day as the other classes for your daily drawings. Your SKBK assignment is due the same day as your project. On Due date the following will be turned in: All projects and skbks are your choice of media. That said ... you must choose one of the projects except the last to be your printmaking project. You also need at least one mixed media. You can do all your projects using printmaking and mixed media if you would like. Also all projects must be matted unless they are· on stretched canvas. Imagine that your work was hanging in a museum. Your critique is the writing that would be placed next to the work. The critique must use a strong sense of vocabulary; explain your process, and how the work connects to your theme. Visit a gallery draw 2 sketches of two different works, give the credit line for each and explain about the work using good vocabulary. The visit is to be done in your sketchbook. The skbk will be checked on critique day. Break Down: Drawings: 10pts (5pts for each) Credit Line: 2pts (1 pt for each) Explanation of work using good vocabulary: 10pts (5pts for each)
