Henry Hargreaves
This artist creates drawings out of objects...many of which are food. Take a look at his work and think about ways you can draw with objects you use on a daily basis. The picture below is made from slices of burnt wonder bread. More here
Professor V's Teaching tools
Hello everyone,
I want to start this semester with a few important ideas that I hope will inspire you in this class.
- You are not expected to have any previous knowledge about color thory, painting or drawing. In this class you should channel all your unknown knowledge/ lack of experience into excitement and curiosity.
- Transform any fear/doubt/embarrassment expressed when facing a challenge into productivity. Jump into the assignment and do not be affraid to make a mistake...there are no mistakes.
- Everyday I want to look at the world around you with new eyes. Look for color, light and form. Challenge your mind by asking questions related to what you see.
- The point of this class is not tomaking a good picture, this is about the process, the discovery and the learning process. You work will transform without you even knowing it.
- Hand work in on time!
- Ask me or your classmates if you have questions.
- Do not give up! You may have to do assignments several times before you get them to look right. Thats ok!
- Never throw anything out! I want to see the stages you go through while you work.
