Wednesday, November 10 Studio Time and Homework for Monday, Nov 15

During class 11/10:
Post Part A of Chuck Close portraits on the wall for a quick "show and tell"
Continue to develop Chuck Close portraits, part B (monochromatic) during our studio time today in red. blue or another color which will give you broad contrast. Yellow would not work. Orange would be too light - where red orange would work very well.

Part B of this project must be larger than the small 8.5 x 11 ink wash version.

Listen to a DVD on the great American art collectors the Vogels as they visit Chuck Close's studio and many others in NYC.

Homework for 11/15
