Feb 19th

This week our warm up included some basic drawing techniques I learned in college. We drew a live model in 30 second increments. We started with basic "get the sketch" on the page, then moved to using a pen (no erasing), and lastly we used our opposite hand (just to get the brain flowing).

Then went back to working on our projects. We still have a few working on the candy collage, and a few that have started to paint their pop cans. Some of us that are starting to get behind in the projects might end up skipping a project in order to keep up. Half of the little artists seem to be forging ahead and a few are falling behind. But I don't want you guys to rush a project just to get it done. If you miss a project that's ok. Just work on the ones that have meaning to you. Better to connect with a project than just  do it to get it done.

Our sketchbook assignment this week is to design a Google "doodle", or a Google search page. They change them quite often and each has a theme. So here are a few examples:


I look forward to seeing what themes you can come up with.

Just as a sneak peek: we will be naming our new groups this week. What do you think we should call them? Last semester the groups were Big Hero 6 & the Fab 5 (both Disney related).
