Class work 2/6/12

Class,

Thank you all for your blog posts. This week please continue your 5x5s adding ten to the group that you have and further the 15 you've begun. In addition continue your Corplegados projects and bring them in next week for a work day. I am pushing back our first critique to Feb 20th instead of next week as originally planned. This will give you more time to investigate, test, tinker and play with materials and process on a deeper level. Some of you might want to give yourselves parameters to narrow your investigation--fewer media and specific techniques might help IF you are feeling lost or overwhelmed by a large, blank surface.

No reading this week but please view these links and post your feedback:
