1.  Finish your Hero project and print it on poster paper or a t-shirt for critique

2.  Enter the California streaming digital Photography contest:  use the link below.  I have a teacher registration and can help submit all work this week.  Deadline is Friday the 6th.  Prize is a Go Pro camera.

3.  Continue to work on your layered painting for 30 minutes a class x 10 classes. I will start to offer new canvases to students that I judge to be more finished than others.  We are only on our 4th class session this week.

4.  Try a surrealist composition in the style of Ryden or Dali.  Mixed media is fun and you should test different techniques on printed and digital medium.  Consider painting a larger section of the wall to satisfy this prompt or partnering up for a larger canvas and sharing the work with a friend who has a similar vision.

5.  Send your coffee cup to the kiln but take a photo first and try to plan some of the glaze in Photoshop.  We will get them back by Friday the 16th and need to spring into action and glaze quickly.

6.  continue printmaking and use your advanced illustrations to plan block prints or softcuts or foam prints or stencils in layers.  -step up your game and challenge yourself to modify existing designs instead of copying another artists work entirely.  make various colors of your prints and sign and number them for our art show at the end of the year.
