Today -
Should finish up pencil  portrait drawing of  you or someone you know - remember the photo should be on blog -  and then blog your drawing along with the photo and  write a summative paragraph before you go on to the color painting of the same face. see tutorial here.

Look at the following criteria and make changes as necessary - 
Are the proportions correct - are features in the right place on the head and is the head the correct shape?
Are the features the correct size in relation to each other?
have your drawn around the surface?
Are the highlights in the right place?
Have you used dark, medium & light values to create form and hair texture.

First - notice the tray on your table - reporter -please put one eraser and a variety of pencils in it for your team.

Then - finish drawings and do write up - and blog all three drawings - improve them as necessary. Make sure the rest of your blog is also up to date.

What did I learn about the proportions of a human head?

Talk about the relative size of length to width, size of the front of the head versus the side. How many parts to the skull? What are the positions on the face of the – eyes, nose, mouth & ears. Where is the neck? What is the shape of an average eye? How do you make an eyeball look glassy?

Please turn in the drawing you did yesterday for credit. Hope you did well on your own. :)

Working, step by step, with the teacher, I can learn the correct proportions of a face.

You will need -
small white paper and pencil - nothing else - remember to draw very lightly.

I can work with my team and using a ruler measure the dimensions of my face and head to make a front and side view drawing.
Problem -
using your skull drawings from last week - of the front and side of a head - make a similar diagrammatic drawing of your face -decide what measurement you need to make - make them on a piece of scrap paper -the more measurements the better. Then do a drawing front and side on a large piece of white paper. You will end with a diagram of a face. Those of you who have done this in your engineering class can help others with the idea of an isometric diagram.

Your drawings will look something like these - only you will be drawing in your hair. You can use pictures of your self you take with your phone - the main ideas is to get your features in the right location.

Pack up your work to take home and take it home!

Make sure your site has all your recent work, your paragraph, & the grading rubric on the landscape project.



Make sure your skull drawing is on your site - but leave it here. We will be working with it next week.

Using a large piece of drawing paper draw both skulls so they line up - eye socket to eye socket a below...
Have one iPad for team so you can share the image and near the end record your progress. 
Friday we will be finishing what isn't finished and taking home art that isn't put up so be prepared for that.

What needs to get done?

finish the artwork - your landscapes

write the summation paragraph & rubric about your favorite drawing - make sure you name it in then new post - on your blog page with photo(s)

Make sure your blog is complete!

NO PERSONAL PICS ON IPADS - if you are using the ipad incorrectly you will be getting a zero for this project and also loose Ipad privileges 
SECRET NOTICE - extra credit possibilities - make a new page on your web site about your art or art observations!

Loved your self-evaluations. I will be keeping them until near the end of the semester when we will use them in our end of semester reflection.
