SATURDAY MAY 1

Hello! This Saturday is our last class and there is a lot to do. During class, we will work on a large collaborative artwork. While you are working on this piece as a group, you will fill in some info. (title, medium, etc.) regarding the work you choose to be in the GT Art Show at the Board of Education. An invitation will be sent to your house regarding the opening of this show.

Additionally, you have some homework to do. You must write a short Artist Statement and email it to us before May 6th. See the column at right for all Artist Statement information.

ALSO, if you have artwork at home that you would like to go in the show, don't forget to bring it to class on Saturday.

SATURDAY APRIL 24 - CHANGE OF VENUE

TOMORROW WE WILL MEET AT SAVAGE MILL AT 10AM. This is a change in the syllabus and a change in the email sent yesterday. We will meet in the parking lot off Foundry Road at the main entrance (next to the Cotton Shed). Please bring the art material you feel most comforable drawing or painting with. We will provide drawing boards, paper, watercolor, brushes.

http://savagemill.com is the link for Savage Mill so you can get a map and directions.

Sorry for the change in location, but because of the rain, this is a much better choice. Email us with any questions.

Happy Spring! Students will use a master artist to transform an ordinary object into something extraordinary. Students must research the style of an artist - either contemporary or classic - and bring in visual references. NO PRINTING OUT LAST MINUTE REFERENCES AT HOWARD!!

Students will use the artist's style to transform the surface of the object they bring - a shoe, a small kitchen appliance, an umbrella, etc.

See you tomorrow!
