Project Outline: Last week we basically started drawing portraits. Today’s class will be the last day we work on this. The structure will remain the same, with me giving a demonstration for them to see, and then a more personalized critique on individual basis.
Conclusion: The work created today was really phenomenal! Again, everyone was so into it, focusing very carefully on the details of the portrait model- Andi. The work that was created was very strong, with evidence of incredible progress since last class. They were all again very intrigued to learn this skill, asking for constant feedback on how to improve. We would respond that an artist is careful to look at the details, and once someone can do that, they can do about anything. They are all so eager to do more portraits, but one student requested that we learn abstract art before she leaves. A change o pace would be refreshing for the next class.
