Intro
Hi, my name is Hannah ; honestly I wasn't planning on taking any classes at evergreen this year until Timko called me and told me I had signed up for AP art. Somthing inside me just really wanted to take the class, so here I am. I've taken two art classes in my entire life and they were both at clark last year: drawing 101 and ceramics 101. I've never thought of myself as an artist and that's partially because my sister is such an amazing one. She was one of the editors and illistrators for the Phoenix, and on top of it she got five pieces in. I have a lot of exposure to art in that way, because she's always pelting stuff down my brain. Personally I like throwing, sewing, and painting (abstract).
My Photo Experience
Hello, I'm Tanya R. I have taken photo 1&2 and I loved it so much I'm in AP photo now. I don't like to leave the house without my camera because if I see something I want to take a piture of I have my camera with my and don't have to worry about figuring out how to take it later. Black and white photos are my favorite because they are timeless. And taking pictures of flowers and nature is what I like to do. One of my favorite photographers is Dorthea Lange because she captures the emotion of her subject at that time.
Intro
Hi! My name is Marieka and I have taken Drawing class during my freshman year with Mrs. Shea, took Advanced Drawing with Mrs. Timko in my Junior year and now I am currently in AP Studio Art. I like working with color pencils and chalk, I admire the works of Miriam Schapiro, and over the summer I have created works inspired by whatever I have on my iPod. Drawing and an eye for detail has always been my best assets, but everyday I am learning and always trying something new.

Intro
My name is Mihai Baltatatescu but you can call me Mike. I have taken Drawing Studio my Sophomore year as well as Advanced Drawing Studio my Junior year, and now I've progressed all the way up to AP Art. I like using charcoal and graphite but I can also work with colors. My favorite artist was Leonardo DaVinci because his name is similar to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.

My name is Alina. I have taken digital photo, animation, pottery, painting, drawing studio, and advanced drawing at Evergreen. Outside of those classes I like to work on pieces at home, but a lot of them dont get finished. I like surreal art, I have a lot of Salvador Dali prints posted around my room.
Time is running out...
Hi everyone! A couple reminders to my 2010-2011 class:
- You only have a couple weeks of summer left, so make sure you are getting those summer sketchbook tasks done! Let me know if you need another copy of the assignments.
- I haven't seen introductory blog posts from several of you, so please do that ASAP if you haven't yet.
- Remember that the last remaining summertime Alberta Street art walk is coming up on August 26th. I saw a lot of you at the June and July ones, wonderful! The August one should be fun as well.
my scores, and to the new ap art students
I ended up getting a 4 for both the ap drawing portfolio and for the ap 2d portfolio.
And for the new student: I would highly recommend doing what Mrs. Timko says, trust me. :) Get to work as soon as possible and avoid doing things until the end. The year is going to fly on by before you know it, so work hard and have fun. :) Good luck to all of you! And I'll see some of you in Alberta Street this summer.

I earned a 4 on my AP Drawing Studio Portfolio.

Jason C!
Hey I'm Jason. I've taken Drawing studio with Timko and Ceramics with Delaney here at evergreen and damn was it fun! I honestly don't know what a media is so I would appreciate it if someone explained it to me xD All my drawings seem to have no meaning at times but i draw whats on my mind. My art shows my inner feelings and i tend to draw myself in drawings to show the relation between the two. I also tend to interpret words into my drawings somehow because a little extra to my pieces, in other words it makes it OG ;D the thing that made me first start getting interested into art was my mother and this very detailed drawing of a house she drew across the street one day when we first moved to Washington. I was so jealous that i wanted to do the same and now i can! I'm hoping that for this summer I can go back to that house she drew and draw it because that would be really special to me. I'm not really into any artists because i usually draw in my own style but i recently found out about this guy Jesse Reno and his art if da bomb! so look him up in your spare time xD
an introduction.
Hi, I am called Rayna and I am going to be in AP Studio Art next year. I have not taken any traditional art classes in high school (I did take 2 photography courses) but I did take art all three years of middle school. I mostly draw with pencils. I used to do a lot of digital art but haven't had a lot of time for that lately. I actually haven't done a lot of art lately so hopefully over the summer and in this class I can get my skill up to where it was previously.
Like I mentioned before, I mostly just use pencil. As for art I like to look at, I don't really have a favourite medium, but I really like the way watercolours look. They are pretty. I would like to try it but I would probably only succeed in making a big mess. I don't have a top favourite artist off the top of my head, either, but I surf art sites a lot in my spare time so I know what's out there.
Art stuff I plan on doing over the summer: the assignments & creating art, learning different techniques through books and online tutorials. I haven't produced anything worthwhile in the last few years and I'd like to put some more thought into what I do.

My favorite artist is David Hovey (www.davidroberthovey.com) his work is absolutley amazing. My favorite media is probably acrylic paint although i love using all other kinds of media.

Introduction (dramatic music insert)
My name is Lexa, my grandmother encouraged me to take up art when I was really young and I've always loved it. At Evergreen, I've taken Art Studio, Paint Studio and Advanced Draw Studio... and Photo 1, but I learned nothing. :| I've taken general art classes all through middle school, including computer graphics (back then, we used Microsoft Paint because we're awesome..) and fine arts. Timko has given me a semester award for art freshman year and Donahue gave me one for painting this year. I thought he hated me until then. I admire many artists, though I don't like every single piece by any artist. There is always one that bothers me somehow. This summer I'm going to all the Last Thursday events with my boyfriend, who is into computer graphics and Game design at the Arts Institute (boo hiss boo!). And do art stuff... like the Summer assignments. :D
