January 29

Journal Day. We are completing our word composition pages with colored pencil and watercolor.

Assignments due next week:

• Project Plan for Matisse-style cutouts, due Wednesday, February 3
• Notan Project for a class critique, due Tuesday, February 2
• Journal Pages, due Monday, February 1 (end of class)
  

For your Matisse-style project plan:

• Make three thumbnails of a natural environment, an event or place, or a story (no movies).
• Must include background shapes, overlapping shapes, no details.
• Remember you are trying to make sure other people don't guess right off the bat what your "theme" is - be secretive.
