Thank you for your patience as I recover from the flu. I became quite ill Thursday evening and have been incapacitated for the last few days. I was able to get a prescription for Tamiflu, but I need one more day to recover. Please keep doing what you do best!
First off:
Sketches of the Week
- Art I: Free Choice or Phobias
- Art III: Free Choice or Objects wrapped in foil
- Art I/S: From the list or Try a Collaborative Sketch with another student!
Art I
On Friday, you went to tessellations.org and shared two facts about tessellations. You also sketched 3 plans for a tessellation on Page 32 of your sketchbook.
Monday's Objectives:
- First, check out the Jim McNeill demo to learn about rotation and translation.
- Second, check out the "Do It Yourself" section on tessellations.org for more ideas.
- Which technique appeals to you? Why? Choose a technique that you feel you can use to create a successful tessellation
- Grab one sheet of 12" x 18" drawing paper and a 3" x 5" index card from the gray cart. Today, you should get started with the basic outlines.
- Although you might use different techniques to create your tessellation (due this Friday), your work will be assessed by:
- Accurate and well-crafted tessellations.
- Understanding of geometric and organic shapes.
- Effective use of repetition, pattern, and one of the following techniques: translation, rotation, reflection, or glide reflection
- Use of a simple color harmony
- Creative subject matter. "But WHAT should it be about?" It's up to you and your wonderfully creative minds!

Have you finished your portrait? If not, please take today to complete. If you are complete, it's time for the assessment.
