Have old baby board books? We want them!

Do you have any of these lying around and taking up space???



These are called Board Books... they're usually for babies, made of hard cardboard and only a few pages (usually 6-7 pages). Many times we grow out of these and have them lying around unused. If you have any of these, please consider DONATING to the art classroom. They can be reused/recycled/upcycled/altered as an interesting interactive art piece like these...

Sketchbook Assignment for Art 2/3! DUE FRIDAY 10/6/17





You have TWO WEEKS for this one, folks! Make it count!

ONE 2-page spread in your sketchbook depicting SCREENS drawn from life. From life =No photo references! Draw what you see not what you think you see.

Think of kinds of SCREENS- laptop screens, t.v. screens, tablet screens, phone screens, door screens, Japanese folding screens. Consider ways of seeing SCREENS- Screens from side angles, cracked screens, screens reflecting a view of the room, screens in reflections of someone's glasses, screens seen through neighbor's windows. 
Think of ways other things/objects can be used as a "screen". The effects of screens on people, what some screens do as a function: protect, addiction, project, etc.
