Class05_Homework_September 4th

Dear Students-
Find the group you belong to below. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me. I will see you very soon!
Professor Urrutia

Figure Sculpture
Today we worked half the day on skulls and the other half on skeletons. Things are coming along very well, but remember to be patient and to MEASURE!!! Many mistakes being made are because you aren't actually observing the thing that you are rendering. If you are having problems, you are probably not spending enough time looking and comparing!!!


Homework
  • Skull - Have your skull completely rendered and ready for carving-out.
  • Skeleton - All the major bones of the body should be in place. For homework add the spine and the rib bones. Next class, we will talk about adding hands, feet, skulls and arm structures. 

Content Portfolio
In class, I spent time talking about articles that you should have gathered for homework and made record of who had what. You should have had at least three and these should have been from reputable and academic sources. If you don't know how to find these, you may go to the library and get a handout detailing the subscriptions the school pays for. Better yet, you can go to http://library.mca.edu/ (this is a link) and see the school's catalog as well as click on the subscriptions from the comfort of your desktop. Some of the sites we subscribe to require that you make an account from school or are on-campus access only. Carefully read the descriptions to discover which have these requirements.

Homework
  •  [3] New pieces - critique 1 is September 13th!!! - You need to have three constructed forms for critique and your first working statement. 
  • Draft 1 Working Statement - Be sure that you come to class next Tuesday with your printed statement to receive full credit. See syllabus for details. 
  • Sketchbook - Be prepared to scan the contents of your sketchbook binder when you come to class on Tuesday. You should have these sections: Critique notes, Research and Analysis, Planning and Sketching, and Glaze Notes and Glazes
