10/14/08 Intro to Art

Today's Class- Today we looked at slides demonstrating the use and effects of color in art from prehistoric to the present. Then we did some exercises in basic color theory, making a color wheel with primary, secondary, and tertiary colors, and a complement mix.

How to make this up- The procedure is far too complex to explain here. I will provide a handout and an explanation next week to students who missed today. This is a portfolio exercise, so you'll have plenty of time to make it up.

Homework- Nothing new, but several students still haven't shown me their list of artists and artworks for the research assignment. The paper is due two weeks from today, on October 28th.

For next class October 21, 2008- We will be discussing photography and I'll be distributing a photo related assignment that you will be doing on your own time. We will not be working on any art projects in class, so you do not need to bring any art materials.
