This sketch book will be checked periodically throughout
the quarter and you will receive a letter grade
every quarter. The following topics are required.
If the following topics are completed to the best of
your ability, you will receive a "B". A great sketch book
requires personal sketches, thoughts, ideas etc. from
the artist, not just the required drawings. Feel free to
add pictures, sketches for projects, written work etc.
to your sketch book to make it about you. Your sketches
should take at least fifteen minutes each. Do not draw
any of the required drawings out of your head. You learn
to draw through seeing the object in front of you!
