Assignments and Homework

Art I:

HOMEWORK - You should bring three pictures to class of Downtown and/or Riverwalk Architecture. I will help you decide which image will be the most successful for our Scratch Paper project. These will be used for the Draw Montgomery Competition in April. Here is what the Draw Montgomery website says about what to use for the contest:

Entrants are encouraged to use the wealth of historic buildings and architectural styles found in and around the Montgomery Downtown and Riverfront areas. We encourage participants to look carefully at our city and creatively interpret what they see, while conveying awareness of good design and its impact.

YOU NEED A MINIMUM OF 3 PHOTOS FOR YOUR HOMEWORK GRADE.

We will make the scratch paper ourselves and we will transfer your drawing of the building to the scratch paper. You will then scratch away the black surface of the Scratch Paper to reveal the white poster board underneath.

Art 1 students will use 11x14" paper.

Art 2 students (Zach and Adrianna) can chose to use 16x20" or 18x24" paper.

ART 3

Homework- students are required to find 3 pictures of the wildlife option of their choice. Remember that we talked about three possible contests this year which will use Alabama wildlife.

Here are the various contests:

1) William R. Ireland Youth Wildlife Art Contest - Click Here

2) Federal Duck Stamp Contest - Click Here

3) National State-Fish Art Contest - Click Here

You should decide which of these that you'd like to enter and then choose the appropriate photo references (3 minimum) and then you must choose 3 habitat images to use in the final project. These habitats must be appropriate for the species that you elected to paint/draw. So no bullfrogs in the Himalayan Mountains.
