Thinking visually outside the lines:

Horses by Cynthia Brants

More thoughts on your AP Portfolios and Scholastic...

I thought I'd post a few images I thought might be inspiring along a with a few words of encouragement.  I appreciate the images some of you have posted but am still, as usual, looking for everyone to post.  Please comment on each other's work as well - that really is the strongest connection you might have to get you thinking in a number of directions.

Please comment on EVERY site - send me a notification that you have done just that.  I will be tracking what you say with each of the pieces you comment on.

Deadlines are in sight...

The deadline for ALL work and sketchbook/masterwork postings will be next wee, November 7th.  I will be grading your sites, your posts and your work.  At that point you should have the following:

1.  6 Concentration pieces (3 from the summer and three so far this year).
2.  4 Breadth pieces

You might have THIS combination:

1.  7 Breadth (3 Summer pieces and 4 from this year so far).
2.  3 Concentration pieces.

I suspect this is going to be a shock to all of you even though I have been trying very hard to get you on top of the schedule.

Please be mindful that the date of the decision regarding "to AP or not to AP" is getting close.

I still believe you can do this but I need to see the work.

Period.

The look.
