4/20/09 2D Design

Today's Class- Today we started by looking at the completed color temperature projects, then began a new graded project that deals with specific limited color palettes, an example of which can be seen above.

How to make this up- All the details, and further examples of the completed projects can be found if you click here.

Homework- This color palettes graded project is due at the beginning of class on May 4, 2009. Those who still owe me back projects, such as wood blocks or the season collage, should get them in as soon as possible. The semester's end is coming soon.

For next class 4/27/09- Next week we begin the final project of the semester. It will involve an adaptation of a painting from the history of fine art. You should bring with you a book with color reproductions of paintings from a favorite artist or period, or a general book about the history of painting. In addition you will need your 18"x24" pad, all your painting supplies, pencil and eraser. The project will also require a piece of matboard, about 20"x30" should be enough, any color.
