AP Art: Sketchbook Project Day

This year the AP Art class collaborated with the National Art Honor Society to create a Sketchbook Project and today they will be delivered to the Brooklyn Art Library in Williamsburg where it will become part of one of the largest collections of sketchbooks in the world.

The theme of our sketchbook is Great Doubts and Massive Victories and above are a few featured examples of artwork from the sketchbook from: Mr. Needles, Rosalie, Mikenzie, and Jamie.  The book can be viewed at the library at any time so if you find yourself in Brooklyn go by and check it out!

Studio Art: The Sketchbook Project

This week we are doing a drawing project in Studio Art class inspired by artist Heather Sinclair's meditative, free-association “what does that look like” and "Newton's Ghosts" sketchbook drawings from The Sketchbook Project.  Each student should complete a full page drawing based on things and people in class and free-association to those things and people.  The link above show's the artists full sketchbook and you can see part of the process by looking through the drawings.  Try to have at least 10 faces in you work and use pen or pencil for the drawing then you can add color if you choose using any media.  Above is the cover of the sketchbook we looked at in class and the drawing below is the begining of the in-class demonstration Mr. Needles did in the Studio Art classes today.  The assignment will be due at the end of class on Tuesday.
