Daily Sketchbook 12/7

Remember the drawing from Tuesday?
I want you to set yourself up to do the same thing, but pick a different person's shoes to draw.
If it was me I would draw on a different scale and on a new layer so that there is some overlapping and visual interest, but that's me.
Use the same pencil took in Procreate as well, please.
Please save as a jpg just like last time.

Daily Skethbook 12/5

Get yourself set up with the "pencil" option in Procreate on an 8x10" canvas.

Situate yourself so that you can see a peer's shoes (no sandals or Ugg type boots please), and begin to draw one or both of them. I'm more interested in specifics than in being "done" in 15 minutes (which you won't be).

When your time is up make sure you export your drawing as a jpg and upload it for your daily sketchbook.




Alternatively: if you know you are redoing an ind. pract. from earlier in the semester, you can get some work done on that since the last day to turn that in is Fri., 12/8. You must, though, let me know - in a complete sentence - that what you are doing is a redo, AND let me know the topic of the redo, as a "message instructor" in this assignment in the Canvas app.

Daily Sketchbook 8/24

Get three of the 3x5" cards that are (or should be) at your table group. In PEN ONLY print your first and last name in small-ish letters in the upper right hand corner. There is an example on the board for you to follow.
Next, in the upper left hand corner but a capital A on one card, a capital B on the second card, and a capital C on the third card. Again, these letters should be in the upper left hand corner.

At this point it would be beneficial for you to review the types of things you have done in your past Art classes here at lghs. For example, you have done observational drawing (still life), drawing and painting from photographs, setting up your own composition (Art 2 acrylic), color exploration, artist of the month, pen and ink drawings, exploring watercolor techniques, creating your own rationale/explanation for a work of your own, and the list continues.
Some of these things are quite "beginning" and about learning something from scratch, and some of them are quite advanced and require a lot more thought.

Next it would be good for your to read the following page of CA Advanced Art Standards.

Finally I want to get your input on the note cards that will relate to your work this semester.
On the "A" card I want you to provide information about what it takes to receive an "A" in this class for you for this semester.
On the "B" card I want you to provide information about what it takes to receive a "B" in this class for you this semester.
On the "C" card I want you to provide information about what it takes to receive a "C" in this class for you this semester.

Clearly there need to be both similarities and differences between these three cards. You may wish to confer with some peers in order to come up with your final - and thoughtful - answers. I will be reviewing these and will circle back to you if your answers are not deemed sufficient enough, so please take your prior knowledge into account in order to come up with an explanation on each card.

When you are happy with your result you should lay them next to each other to photograph and upload them to the daily sketchbook assignment. Please had your three cards to me when you are finished and begin on your observational drawing assignment.
You may find it necessary to begin this, but then finish it later in class after you have had some time to think about it and process the information.

Daily Sketcbhook 11/29

Go back to your daily sketchbook page from 10/12 (the one where you added watercolor to your sandcastle drawing.

Keep your book open to that page while simultaneously opening the procreate app on the ipad.

Begin replicating your sandcastle painting in that procreate app and see how close you can get it to look in the next 13 minutes.

Remember that you can create layers for diff areas, and you can adjust the opacity of a brush/tool/layer with the slider on the side of the screen.

When time is up, export the image as a jpg and upload that image to Canvas.


Coming back to class during tutorial on an "off" day and finding your ipad and continuing to work on this image so that you get better with drawing on the ipad is always a good idea. Hint hint.

Daily Sketchbook 3/7

German Expressionism.

We have looked at a little of this art through our artist of the month series in the past (remember Kirchner, for example), but I want you to follow THIS LINK and choose one of the first 20 or so images that comes up and then follow the below steps.

1) look up this prompt on the ipad if you have not already begun to do so (no phones today)
2) enlarge your chosen image as much as possible
3) save it to the photos of the ipad
4) go way back to the watercolor layer you created on 2/11
5) spend today drawing out the image you have chosen, lightly, in pencil
6) photo your image and upload it to Canvas
7) remember which ipad you are using

Be specific with this, and mark what parts are supposed to be black. We will come back to this image again later this week.

Alternatively, and you can thank Abbi for this, you may create a pencil drawing of a hot air balloon carrying a rooster. This will ultimately be something like a fill-in ink piece so keep that in mind as you draw out your image(s).

A Little Glimpse

If you are interested in seeing some of the work that goes on in the art studios, you're in luck. This is just a tiny tiny sliver from each of the four Art levels here at LG that I could get in between doing demonstrations, helping students, grading, and prepping for the next thing.
By this point, much of this work is well behind us, but this will give you a glimpse of what the very end of Sept and/or the very beginning of Oct looked like.

If you have 4:30 to spare, enjoy.
