3/4 - Studio Night

Hello Everyone,
Just a reminder that tonight is a studio night. The ideas that you began investigating last class period will begin to be actualized on your paper. A few things to remember:

Drawing 1:
1) Be creative and don't be scared to make ridiculous decisions.
2) Take ownership of the still-life - when you are finished your drawing should have your voice.
3) Fill your composition - don't waste space unless it is strategic to the imagery.
4) Ask yourself,  "have I abstracted this image?" - does this drawing meet the guidelines of "not being a natural occurrence". In other words, your final drawing should not be recognizable as something that could happen in the natural setting.

Drawing 2 & 3:
1) Compositional completeness - because this is a concept driven piece, challenge yourself to take the image as far as it needs to go. Constantly ask yourself "what makes this image finished" and be ready to justify that in critique.
2) Voice - Does the image have your voice? does it say what you want it so say about you or your idea?
3) Consider color - will your image demand the use of color or experimentation with different mediums?
