• Look over Final Projects and choose one to focus on. Do sketches for the weekend. Due 4/20
• Portrait of your peer Due today

Wednesday 4/15

• Self portrait study focusing on facial structure due 4/15. Use a complimentary palette. Any medium acceptable although pastels are a good learning tool.

When using a complimentary palette, make sure you use a lot of mixtures of the two colors, by layering the materials. Pastels mix like paints, but they do it directly on the surface you are drawing, not on the side, so it will take a few layers before you can see the color you have. They also erase easily.

• Pastel Intro video if needed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ni46Mx8nGZk

• Next week is scheduled to be a "in class" work week. I will set Zoom meetings on Monday 4/20 between 12 and 2:20 to discuss project plans, please send sketches and have thoughts this before meeting.

Chuck Part 1

Chuck Part 2

Chuck Part 3

1, 2, 3 point perspective photos due 3/18 (outlined on class blog)

Look over these as well
-Interactive model of linear perspective that allows one to move things like the VP in a 3D model and see the effects on the space. The site also has a a couple of other short videos, like one on Brunelleschi’s experiment 

-Good clear instructional video of artist Michael Lewis demonstrating linear perspective.  

-Short video of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCvt_Uo3rOw

-Fun video of  Ames Illusion (it has a Eastern European gypsy brass soundtrack, so yeah…)

-Video of use of perspective to create scale illusions in film, photo etc

-Video of built structures that play with illusion of perspective 

You will make a drawing in or around your home in 1, 2, or 3 point perspective. The final 18 x 24 drawing should be completed by 3/30. Do thumbnail sketches where you use linear perspective to represent your placement and specific point of view. If you are seated it should appear to the viewer that you are seated. If you are in a tree you should feel above the ground. This means you will need to figure out your horizon line and vanishing point while drawing in all lines extending to the vanishing point. Remember all lines running parallel into the distance will converge at the vanishing point.

Art / Life: One Year Performance 1983-1984 (Rope Piece)

In this performance, Tehching Hsieh and Linda Montano spent one year tied to each other with an 8-foot-long (2.4 m) rope. They had to stay in a same room while not allowed to touch each other until the end of the one year period. Both of them shaved their hair in the beginning of the year, and the performance was notarized initially by Paul Grassfield and later by Pauline Oliveros.
