Today's Class- Today the class continued working on the comic strip project that we began last week. While that was going on, I printed the collograph plates for everyone who came to class. The resulting print is to be saved as part of your semester portfolio (I recommend taping it to a blank page so it doesn't fall out) while you may keep or throw away the plate itself. You have the option of adding color to your print if you like, by using your watercolors (as in the example above) or pastels, with color applied thin enough to allow the textures of the print to show through.
How to make this up- Those who didn't come to class today should bring their collograph plates to class next week. I'll collect them, print them at home, and return them the following week. As for the comic strip project, everyone in the class attended either last week or this week, so all should know about the project, but if you need a reminder, the details can be found at last week's post.
Homework- The symbolic autobiographical comic strip project is due at the beginning of class on April 20, 2011.
Keep in mind that the museum assignment must be turned in by the beginning of the last day of class to receive credit. If you haven't yet made your museum visit, I recommend that you do it as soon as possible.
For next class 4/20/11- We will look at the resulting comic strips, then discuss the history of sculpture and start talking about the final 3D project of the semester. We will also likely visit the graduate student show in the gallery down the hall. Bring in your completed comic strips, some kind of paper for notes and sketches (your pad or a notebook), pencil and eraser.
