Monday Oct 18 studio - homework for Wednesday Oct 19 and MIDTERM PORTFOLIO REVIEW deadline


Watercolor Studio today:
Resend your VMFA information in the format below to the new watercolor email address I gave you in class. If you were absent please check your email as I've sent it everyone in our class.


Format:
subject of email: your name
content of the email: Artists' name, title of artwork and the name of the florist
images (2 or 3) sent as an attachment.


This email will be posted on the blog immediately. Use it whenever I ask you to send me photos or if you are absent and need to send me your homework assignment.


During Class
Create the underpainting / background for your Fine Art and Flowers painting based on the artwork you chose.  Layer the botanical arrangement or a detail of the arrangement in the foreground.


For Wednesday 
Continue working on your F A and Flowers watercolor. We'll have a working critique during class on Wed.


Considerations:
The viewer should be able to tell what painting you referenced and what type of flowers (botanical study) you are referencing from the arrangement created based on the painting from the VMFA collection.


Overall composition and technique


Use techniques we've worked with this semester that are most appropriate for the artwork and flowers you are referencing.
