Final project planning.

So…you have a couple of weeks to make whatever you want (almost). What do you hope to accomplish? What is your idea? The job of the artist is to have an idea.

Describe the person you plan to make a portrait of and why you've chosen them.
Describe the animal you've chosen to represent your subject and why.
In what environment will you put the animal and why?
Upload some source images of your chosen animal and environment for the project.
Look at the source images for ideas about textures to use on your sculpture.

Symbolic Portrait Planning.

Describe the person you plan to make a portrait of and why you've chosen them. Explain the symbols and/or metaphors you might use to create a portrait of them. Include any source images you plan to use.

Reflecting on group work.

This week you have been working with a group to develop a concept for a collaborative mural project. In a post on your blog describe how making art with other people has been different than making art on your own. In your description be sure to mention challenging AND positive aspects of this work.

Please DO NOT use any names in your blog post. Focus on your own perspective and your own contributions to the group. Be thoughtful, reflective, and kind.
