9/7/18 Introduction to Art


Today's class- Today was our first meeting of the semester.  The syllabus was distributed and reviewed. Students filled out a survey regarding their past art experiences, which we shared as a group, and I shared my experiences using the same format.  

How to make this up- If you missed today, make sure to request a syllabus at next week's class.  

Homework- Nothing yet.  If you are on campus over the next week I recommend visiting Tino Cook's exhibition "Caged Bird" in the student gallery on the first floor of Vaughn-Eames.  Hours are listed as noon to 8 pm daily, with a special reception on 9/12/18 starting at 7 pm.  Not required, and there is no related assignment, just something free and worth seeing if you are in the building.

For next class 9/14/18- We start our study of line.  Bring your 18"x24" pad, pencil(s) and an eraser.  We will be drawing shoes, and I'll have some for the class to use.  You are welcome to provide one of your own, a closed shoe (no sandals or flip flops), any style, or even take one off your own foot if you like.  The semester museum assignment will be distributed as well.
