3 Pieces For October

The first photo is a picture of my sister Laura who is 23. She is the 'princess' of the family, so i thought it would be cool to dress her up in a tu-tu and take pictures of her in a park.

The second photo is a picture of a leaf that I took in April at my grandparents house. It shows "April Showers Bring May Flowers".

The third photo is a picture of a building i took in Paris, France. It shows the unique architechture in Europe and I loved the effect of the clouds behind it because it looks godly almost.

Blog Assignment, 10/15

Good morning! Here is your assignment for today:

1. Do your monthly blog post: 3 edited slides with short commentary on each piece. Please do ONE POST ONLY, (i.e., do not post three pieces in three separate posts). Try to finish your post by about 8:15 to leave time for comments. (4 points)


2. THEN, starting at 8:15, you will make four comments on four different blog posts from the month of October. Please do not comment on someone's work that already has four comments. When you are finished, everyone should have four comments on their own post. These comments should consist of encouragement, critique, and other constructive feedback. Please be specific about what you like or what you think needs improvement. (1 point for each comment, 4 total)
   
3. If you have time today, please go back to all of your past posts and make sure they are labeled with your first name (spelled correctly) and the word "slides."

AP Studio Art Intro

Hi, I’m Amanda. I’ve taken photo 1 and 2 with Martin, pottery with Delaney, paint studio with Donahue, art studio, draw studio and advanced draw studio with Timko here at Evergreen. I’d probably have to say that my favorite media to work with is oil pastels. I really like doing high contrast black and white pieces. I also like working with acrylic paints and clay.

Alli :)

Hello fellow art people. My name is Alli. I am a senior and evergreen high school and this blog is for my AP Art Studio class. I enjoy all Artsy things including; Music, Photography, Drawing, Painting, etc. All though drawing and painting is not my strong suit unless you consider finger painting and stick figures talent. My real passion is Music and Photography. I have taken both these classes (Choir & Photography) at Evergreen and i have also taken guitar lessons and singing classes outside of school.. One thing about art is that you can go any where in the world and find it. For instance, I traveled to Paris, France with a group of art students and teachers from my school to explore the art and culture of the French. While traveling there i found that i dont have a favorite artist..why you might ask...Well i believe that each artist has there own unique indiviuality. So therefore, i dont have one. I like them all :) thank you for reading my thoughts :)

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.

Keefer

My name is Keefer V, im 17, a senior at evergreen highschool that is in AP Art Studio.
On my free time i like to blast my music and draw. I have been drawing since i was little, I've been active in some contests and art shows at my school. I have taken Drawing studio, Advanced Drawing studio and now AP Art studio. Some of my Favorite artists Are Alex Pardee, "Cope", "Atlas", "Bates" and "Syras." Some medias that i like are, Sketches, Paint and Ink Drawings. This summer i plan on Drawing a lot more at home and possibly take some drawing classes at Clark College.

Fall 2010

Hello, im jose.. for me my experience with art has been that ive taken drawing studio, ceramics, cartooning, and a little bit of 3d animation. i would say that i perfer to construct or to make things that are related to art, for instance designing. but drawing also catches my attention. one of the "artists" that i admire is clothing designer Guo Pei, her work is architectural and fantasy like. thats the kind of technique that i like...

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.

AP Art Intro

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.
  

Now is your last chance to get ahead of the game and work on some pieces before school starts on September 1. If it works better for you, feel free to start on 5 or 6 pieces instead of finishing one entire piece. I am happy to help you develop half-finished ideas once we are back to school. Email me if you have any questions. Enjoy the rest of your summer!

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.
