Studio Notes

Crit: Constructive show and tell of imaginary/memory landscapes

Q and A regarding samples and homework assignments

Develop larger scale landscapes during class time

Complete large scale imaginary/memory landscapes before class on Tuesday.

Create and complete three small postcard size value studies of the three geometric shapes you see examples of on the handout you received in class today. Bring these to class on Tuesday.

Bring a series of small, natural objects that you want to paint on Tuesday - ideally things you've picked up at some of the places you've been painting - good things to bring: rocks, sea shells, drift wood, sticks. birds nests. nuts, seed pods, acorns, etc.
