9/25

Drawing 1 -
Tonight you will begin the final drawing in you series of still-life drawings. In the previous class we discussed the idea of "abstraction" as a way for an artist to compartmentalize, re-define, interpret and determine preference. When an artist makes the decision to edit their composition, they are entering into a conversation about abstraction, even if their imagery is representational.

In this project you will be creating an abstract image that draws from the still-life like a palette. Each object and form is at your disposal to manipulate, change or remove. The way you include forms and depict them should be related to an idea or emotion that you want to express. You are at liberty to create a narrative from the objects or make an image that is more elemental, textural, layered or surreal.

Drawing 2 - You will begin implementing the ideas that you came up with in the last class period. Please bring the supplies and material necessary for creating your image (you don't have to use traditional drawing mediums). Please be ready to justify your decisions.
