Daily Sketchbook 1/18

We are mid-way through the month (gasp), so it's time for the always favorite AOTM.
Come to my desk and start trimming down your handout and taping it in your sketchbook while I get you started.

Daily Sketchbook 11/14

It's another art history day but I want you to follow a few directions.

Please read all of the directions before you begin.

  • First, you'll need to go to The Lonely Palette website and begin THIS VAN GOGH EPISODE and skip forward to the 3 min mark.
  • Next, set the timer for 13 minutes. (yes, I want each of you to set your own timer on your own ipad)
  • While you are listening to the first portion of this podcast, draw the first image* you see at the bottom of the page in your sketchbook 
  • Yes, you need to use headphones
  • When your timer goes off, take a photo of your drawing and upload it for your daily sketchbook
  • I would love for you to finish listening to this episode, but you can do that as you work on your painting as well
You do not need to listen to all 22 minutes of the episode, and I do not want you to take the entire episode length to draw and upload. However, I do want you to spend the above referenced 13 minutes to draw, so please get started asap and draw for the entire time until your timer goes off.
Smile. Art is fun.
Oh, sorry Sabine, I know you don't like her voice, but I do think it is an interesting podcast.

Daily Sketchbook 10/2

A wee bit o' art history time.

First, go to THIS PAGE in Safari.
You'll be able to listen to The Lonely Palette podcast about JMW Turner's painting, The Slave Ship there. You could, alternatively, pull up that podcast in the podcast app on your ipad and listen to it there. Maybe even subscribe from your ipad (hint hint).

While you are listening, sketch out the below painting in your sketchbook or in procreate. Feel free to use any color you want, but sketch up until the episode is over, but when all the extraneous talking and ad type things begin a few minutes before the end is when you can begin photographing/exporting and uploading your image.

Additionally, on your own time, you might find THIS interesting.

It's time for our first Artist of the Month for the year, so bring your pencil and sketchbook to my table. I know I was haphazard about this last year, but I'll try to do better this year.

Daily Sketchbook 12/16

It's a short class period today so we need to be super duper efficient.
It is AOTM time, so let's do this.
You've heard me mention his name before, and he's one of our table group artists, so let's learn something about the inimitable Lucian Freud!

Daily Sketchbook 2/3

I know you've been waiting for it, and since I intentionally didn't have one last month (meaning, I was busy dealing with wedding stuff and then took a couple of days off so I didn't have the time to mess with it), it is Artist of the Month time!
Seriously, calm down.

Come up to my desk with your sketchbook and PENCIL, and we'll get started.

This month it's the wonderful world of Francesco Clemente.

All the info you need to know (including links) can be found on Canvas if you are absent today.
