"Goals you set are goals you get"

When planning out your Coil Projects please keep in mind the requirements:
1.  Organic form  (from nature)
2.  Use line
         (Lines can be horizontal, vertical, or diagonal)
         (Lines can be actual or implied) 
3.  Positive/Negative Space
4.  12" +

You have 5 class periods to complete this assignment!  Please try to come up with an idea that is challenging but attainable, and clearly defined.  How will you spend your work time?  How much work must you complete each week to stay on track?  Think about the details in how your piece is going to be constructed. 

As for the rest of this week....
You'll get your ocarinas back tomorrow to put on the finishing touches for class on Wednesday.  Wednesday will be our class critique.  Please feel free to bring snacks to share at the crit.  I'll also go over some pertinent info from the readings and hand out a vocabulary sheet for the quiz. 

See you tomorrow. 

Ocarinas Due Wednesday

Have 'em done one hour into class! 

I'll be in at 9:30am Wednesday to help those of you who are having problems.  See you tomorrow! 

No Class Today

I'm not going to be able to be in class today, so please continue working on your ocarinas and have your sketches ready for Wednesday.  My son Rowan is ill, and I'm home with him for the day.  Hope all of you are staying healthy!

See you Wednesday.
