Student Painting and Visual Evidence by Candy Jernigan
Next week we will begin to create an artwork that will be based upon a personal journey that has had a positive influence on you. We take many journeys in our lives, some are long and tiresome, others are short and quick. Regardless, the journeys we have taken in our lives have brought meaning to our lives, and shaped who we've become today.
For class next Monday, I'd like you to bring in 5-10 photographs, artifacts, or other mementos that remind you of a significant, positive journey you've taken in your life. This journey may have lasted a long time, like meeting and becoming friends with a new person over the summer, or maybe it just happened in one day, like the night you went to see a music concert with a friend. Or maybe it was even simpler, like the journey you took from your bedroom to your kitchen to get a midnight snack. Whatever journey you decide to work with, make sure it's important or significant enough to inspire an artwork.
Due next class, Monday, November 17th
1) Complete the worksheet "Illustrating a Personal Journey" for Monday, I will collect it at the end of class for a 10 point homework grade.
2) Collect 5-10 photographs, artifacts, or mementos that illustrate or are evidence of that significant event. These will be counted for a 10 point homework grade as well.
Look at the slideshow below to get an idea for how this "visual evidence" will be used to inspire a personal journey painting you'll be making in class, as well as what kinds of things could be included! Below the slideshow is a copy of the "Illustrating a Personal Journey" worksheet to be submitted on Monday!
