Imagine your artwork is hanging in a gallery. What would you want viewers to know about your artwork as they are looking at it? Write 5-10 sentences about your drawing.
MATERIALS:
Any mark-making tool on any surface. Literally.
Friendly Reminder: in an effort to maintain responsible social distancing and limit the demands being placed on delivery services and workers at this time, I encourage you to use what you have, vs trying to go out and purchase new stuff in a store or online. Please contact me directly if you have any questions about materials.
*The above is the initial prompt from the start of school closures in the state of California on March 16, 2020.
Students had the option to explore this each week, in a addition to a variety of other art topics and themes.
Art-making prompts for work on this site remains fluid and continues to evolve.*
