In Art Portfolio you will be given very open ended projects to help you develop your skills, creativity, and point of view as an artist.
Every other project in the class will be a “Choice” Word project. You will be given a word to use as a theme / jumping off point / inspiration and you will then design a project around that word, in the medium of your choice. You may NOT just google the word and copy a photo that you find. You MUST combine resources and ideas to make a unique piece that expresses you and your ideas. Taking and using your own photos as resources is one suggested way to make the piece truly your own.
Blog Post:
1) Please critique your finished artwork. How well did you express your "word?"
2) What was successful about your piece and what needed work?
3) Please explain one alternate idea you had for your word.
