This morning we watched a Google Talk by the writer Austion Kleon.

I asked you to take notes on the main ideas and artists that he talked about. This is a required blog post.

Next, I would like you to think about how this may apply to your artistic life.

Answer the following:

1. What is one of the concepts that appeal to you and why? Be specific and apply it to the current work your are doing.

2. How are you using Good or Bad theft? Choose a few of the concepts and relate it to the work you are doing, or even work you have done in the past. Be specific about this by relating it to art that you have made.

Project 3

You should be working on Project 3.

The Project 3 Proposal is overdue if you have not posted it on your blog

Project 3 Due - Monday April 8

You should be starting Project 3 today. We will spend the month of March and the first week of April to work on it.

Consider these questions...

• Is project 2 complete? If not, will you begin Project 3 and finish Project 2 later?
• How did the experience of your first project make you  feel? Do you want to continue with the same mediums or try something new?
• What did you do well in project 2? What will you improve in Project 3?

You should always begin a new project by clicking on the Process Portfolio Guide above and answering ALL of the questions. Post the answers to your blog this week.

Project 3 Proposal Due Friday March 8

As you wrap up Project 2, consider what your plans for project 3 might be.

Think about and be ready to answer the following:

• Are you going to continue with the same theme, medium, or techniques?
• How has the experience of the first two projects affected your decisions for your next work?
• Are you improving as you work? Staying still, going backwards?
