FACEBOOK Hidden Class Site & Virtual Gallery DATES


I have created a FACEBOOK HIDDEN GROUPS site for our class, both SA121 and SA321 together.  
The members of the group who can see and share are only our class members.  



On Facebook, it is called PAINTING SP2020 CAZ
Each of you will need to join that if you have not already.
You need to friend me first at JEN PEPPER
I, in turn, will invite you to join PAINTING SP2020 CAZ

Why do you need to do this?
We will use this site to upload the following:
  • To upload your Individual Virtual Sketchbooks starting TUESDAY MAR 24
  • To launch extra ideas we would like to share with the group
  • To launch in-progress images of what we're working on
  • To upload our videos
  • To make collective comments in our virtual critiques
  • To simply send us something that will make us smile!
This will be a fun!


Assignment #1
The first assignment you need to complete is to take a photograph of a found painting in your environment, where ever you might be right now.  
Upload the image into our FB site
Give details of what it is
Where it is located in your environment
Who made it (if available) and any other comments you want to share

Myself and a few other students have already completed this assignment.  
They're great thus far!!
Those of you who have not, need to.

Assignment #2 ongoing to end of the term
Upload 3x a week your Virtual Sketchbooks entries on FB site page
Label each one #25/40, #26/40, etc.
By the end of the term you will have #40 entries 

This assignment will commence on TUESDAY MAR 24
By Friday, MAR 27 you should have launched Entry #25, #26 and #27 of 40 
Make sure each are marked!!

Mark in your calendars when each trio are due:
MAR 27 = 27 entries of 40
APR 03 = 30
APR 10 = 33
APR 17 = 36
APR 24 = 39
MAY 01 = 40
You are available to do more for extra credit, 
but please remember, more is not better if the quality is not thorough!

PROCESS:
1. You will follow the same procedures I asked for in your physical sketchbooks Week 1 through 8. 
2. Week 9 (MAR 24) forward you will keep a virtual sketchbook on FACEBOOK to share with the class remotely.  
However, the difference here, other than the obvious, you need only answer Question #1 - what sparked your interest about the particular work. 
3. Should you wish to include Question #2 how the sculpture relates to the course, by all means, please do for extra credit! Quality not quantity!
4. Make sure you date each entry #24/40, #25/40, etc with the actual date on your entry.
Your colleagues can see your posts on FACEBOOK and we will all be able to comment on them!
5. I am going to join you in this exercise! This way you can see what I am thinking about from the world of art, as well as my ideas for inspiration for my own studio practice. 
6. Each student should make 5 comments per week minimum to their colleagues entries (at minimum)
7. And as always, should you have questions about this assignment, ask me sooner rather than later!

The Virtual Sketchbook Rubric has changed very slightly.
