new software finally

December 27, 2008 at 6:45 am (Uncategorized) ()

A little something I found on MizzMonica’s blog…

I’m not going to FETC (in fact I have never been to one of these huge conferences) but the word is that the new software will be available for download, which means I dont have to constantly shift between activexpression software and activstudio software.

Reminder

December 12, 2008 at 5:47 pm (Uncategorized)

Just a reminder to all students still working on your self portrait, that they are due at the end of the week.  I will help you scan the portraits once you are done so we can view them on the ACTIVboard when everyone is done.

Hopefully we can learn a lot by looking at each other’s work and offer constructive criticism.  

 

Good luck

Portraits from Pictures

December 1, 2008 at 6:33 pm (Uncategorized)

It is time for one of the more interesting projects I assign.  Self portraits from your favorite picture of yourself.  I ask the class to bring in their favorite (appropriate) picture of themselves at any age to draw a chest up self portrait.  

This project takes a bit longer than what we have covered in the past but I always enjoy the final product.  I’ve posted some examples at the bottom.
