Welcome to Art9!

I am excited to get this semester started with a great group! A quick reminder: this Thursday's class- all you need is a notebook. Please have one that is designated for this class only. You will be doing homework assignments in it and taking notes. If you can't get one before tomorrow's class, just get one as soon as possible and you can transfer whatever information into it when you have it.

For Tuesday Jan 17: we are starting a project. You will need to bring:
-a piece of white drawing paper around 18x24 inches. please do not bring a piece of computer paper(that is too small and not the right kind of paper)
-graphite pencils (you can purchase a set of pencils at any art store or Michaels/Hobby Lobby etc. A decent set will have a range of pencils from 4B to 2H. As long as you have a few different ones you'll be good.
-colored pencils (any brand is fine- whatever fits your budget) prismacolor is a great brand if you plan on using them in the future
-a uniball ink pen (any pen with thick dark black ink will work)
-last but not least and most important: you need to find an image of an animal and print it and bring it with you. It should be of the animal's entire head and preferably a snarling animal. The more ferocious and open mouth, the better.

If you have any questions about the materials please don't hesitate to email me.
