Everyday, we will start with 10 minute warm up sketch. I will give you a topic each day, set a timer and, using your pencil, you will create a sketch to go with the topic. For the next 5 minutes, we will have a quick critique and review of what was drawn and how your ideas developed.

Next, we will move into our projects. Projects will consist of multiple days of work and should be fully developed from sketch to final touches. Each class we will discuss/review our objectives for the current artwork we are creating.

INTEGRITY IN ART
INTEGRITY IN ART
Artistic Integrity is defined as the ability to omit an acceptable level of opposing, disrupting, and corrupting values that would otherwise alter an artist's ...original vision in a manner that violates their own ...standards and personal values. This basically means sticking to your own vision/idea/concept. Everybody's thought process is unique. The most IMPORTANT thing you can do as an artist and student is to find your own path. Sometimes your path may cross over somebody else's (like when two people have the same idea), but your way of completing it will be different.

With that said, Google is your frienemy. It's a great place to get started, to research, to formulate ideas, but you don't want to copy directly off of it. Follow your own path.
