Assignment
This week— look up one of the artists assigned to you. Buy a large sheet of hot-press watercolor paper close to the size of the newsprint you normally use. Hotpress paper is really smooth and easy to draw on. If you are working in Pen and Ink you need hotpress watercolor paper. If you want to work in pastels you might get canson pastel paper instead if you can’t find it. Over the weekend, start on a study of your artist, using whatever materials you wish. A study is something like a copy, but it doesn’t have to be exact. Take the time to explore other media, like pastels or watercolors. Work on your piece for just an hour or two and bring it to class partially finished Monday March 2. We will finish it in class on that day.
