Crunch Time

Ahhhh finals week!

Bonus day on Monday, who knew?

What do I need to have done for the final? Two pieces of concentration work. Whistling season piece if you signed up for that.

What are we going to do on finals day? Upload our breadth images to the AP site and create a website of our breadth sections.

See you tomorrow!

Scholastic Madness & More


Amazing artists abound at Lakeridge High School. I'm so proud of all of you! The reception was nuts! It's time to rethink how to make that experience more meaningful and not so crazy. Too many people, I guess that's a good problem to have.

Your next concentration pieces, two of them, will be due the day of finals for AP. We won't have a critique because we will be putting together your breath sections of your portfolio. I'll have Breanna take photos of your new work and we will post them on the blog next week to talk about.

Don't forget:

1. Two concentration pieces due Finals day.

2. Bring in all artwork I need for the breath section of my portfolio to be photographed. This week :)

3. Putting together breath section of portfolio on Finals day. This is worth 50 % of your grade. Yikes :)

4. Have fun.

5. Whistling Season kids, we need to have the work completed by Finals day. The reception is Feb 5th and they need time to frame the work.

Portfolio Day + Scholastic = Big HIT


The folks at PNCA were thrilled with the union of portfolio days with the Scholastic art awards. What did you think of the work? What did you think of portfolio days? Can't wait for the Scholastic reception!

This dog had so much fun, it's exhausted!
