1/24/11 2D Design

Today's Class- Today the course syllabus was distributed and reviewed. The class then filled out a survey regarding their artistic experience, which we discussed as a class. I also handed out the museum assignment and explained it.

Homework- none

For next class 1/31/11- We will look at the most basic unit of mark making, the point or dot. Bring your 18" x 24" pad of drawing paper, pencil and eraser, and ultra fine point and standard black markers. We will start a graded project that involves working from a black and white photograph, so students are asked to bring one to class. The photo should have a wide range of value tones (light/medium/dark) and be of something you are comfortable drawing. It can be a photographic print, or something found in a book, magazine, etc. I will have some suitable photos available for students who don't bring one.
