5/5/17 Intro to Art

Today's Class-  Today was a general work day.  Some students brought materials and worked on their 3D final project.  Some used the time to work on other class assignments, things from the portfolio that is due next week.  More comic strips and museum papers were collected, and some of the previously submitted ones were returned.  We had the last slide show of the semester, a very brief overview covering 15,000 years of sculpture in a mere 40 slides.  A few students who had missed last week received the topic for their 3D final project.

How to make this up- Details about the 3D final can be found in last week's blog post.  If you still don't have your topic, e-mail me and I'll select if for you.  

Homework-  Next week is our last meeting of the semester, so anything that you have not turned in yet must be in for next week if you wish to receive credit, such as museum papers, or excuse notes, and the two individually graded projects.  

For next class 5/12/17-  As part of our final meeting, I will be reviewing all the work in the semester portfolio- which is all the previously ungraded art assignments from this semester.  If you never missed a class, you have it all done.  However, if you may be missing something, here's the list of what I'll be looking for the and date you'll find it on this blog:
