Paper Work Day!


Today you will need your computer!!

1.) Write a 3-5 sentence explanation about your dot! (You may write more if needed!) Write about how your dot fits your personality. Tell about how the colors and materials enhance the meaning of the work. This “Artist Statement” will be printed and taped under your name in the “Rock Hall Gallery”. You may type these in word or pages. Title it "My Dot" and then begin. All sentences need to start with a capital and end with a period. "I" must be capitalized please!! Once finished print to the "HS lib BW" printer by clicking on "File", "Print".


2.) Now I would like for you to look up the career of “Illustration”. I would like for you to comment on my blog by answering these questions. (Ex. Peter H. Reynolds - The Dot)
-What does an Illustrator do?
-What kind of education or qualifications do you need in order to become an Illustrator?
-What kind of money does an Illustrator make?
-What kind of hours or deadlines would you expect to work or meet in this career field?
-Who is your favorite Illustrator and why?
I would type in word or pages first and then copy/paste to the blog comment location. That way you are able to spell check and if the comment doesn't send you have it saved somewhere else.

These are both due before the start of class on Tuesday!

    -Illustrators combine art, design and creative skills to develop ideas and produce original visual images for a wide range of products.

    -You really don't need a formal education.There are a lot of free lance artists out there. Some get an agent who does all the leg work for 10-30% commission.

    -The amount of money that an illustrator makes will depend on the location and experience of the person. They about $50,630 per year.

    -The working hours of illustrators vary depending on deadlines and quantity of work. Some may work at home or in a studio.

    -My favorite illustrator is Danny Allison, because he seems to put a lot of colors into his work. It looks really cool, with all the colors everywhere.
