Welcome to Our Online Classroom! I'm looking forward to a new year with all of you, and I anticipate that it will go well! I'm excited to see and share in the artwork you are making. I hope that this will be an enjoyable time for all, where you can work amongst your peers, share ideas, critique each other's work, and help push each other to produce successful artwork and to achieve higher standards. Although the IB and AP classes are independent study, that doesn't mean you should be an island unto yourself! Each class will be interactive. This website is designed to reinforce communication between all of you and myself, as well as to give you a chance to look at more art and to consider various aspects of it that you may not have pondered. The links to local exhibitions will be updated regularly, as will each of your online sketchbooks, allowing all of you the chance to become informed about area artists - even those in your own class. Learning to communicate about your own art and that of others is extremely important, not only if you are considering a career in the arts, but to all of you. I am asking you to write about and discuss your art because it will help your communication and analysis skills, and it will help you to formulate your own ideas and be able to articulate the goals that you are pursuing with your art (this is especially emphasized in the IB Curriculum.) |
