homework for tomorrow

as discussed, please take a small section of one of your series drawings and blow it up to the size of your newsprint and draw it using a different material. so, if you used something like tin foil in your series, then render the texture of the tin foil using something like pencil or charcoal. when selecting the section you will draw, please consider composition. also, please bring your series back in so we can compare your new drawing to the older one.

also, do NOT forget your three ink wash tones, paper, and brush.

Things for Tomorrow

For tomorrow, you will need:

1. A bamboo brush (size 8 or 10)
2. Drawing pad (not newsprint, the thicker stuff)
3. 3 containers with different shades of ink. Mix water and ink to create three distinct shades. Please test your mixtures before class to make sure there is a discernible difference between all three. 

please please please please please bring all these things. if you forget them, it will break my heart.
