interactive |ˌintərˈaktiv|
adjective(of two people or things) influencing or having an effect on each other
In your interactive drawing the image you create is going to interact with a real object or you!
Step 1: Draw an image of anything that you would like. Make sure that it will interact within a photograph with your fingers, you, or another object. For the drawing you can use a photograph, your imagination, a computer reference or magazine reference. COME UP WITH YOUR OWN ORIGINAL IDEA! DO NOT COPY ANOTHER ARTISTS IDEA!!!!
Step 2: Draw the image or images in pencil. Use only line and value. We can ink them tomorrow! 
Step 3: *When I return on Tuesday* We will set up your drawing with you or an object and photograph the interaction. OR you may photograph the images separately and then use Photoshop to make them interact in a separate printed image!
Things to know:NO TALKING TODAY! NO ASSISTANCE FROM OTHERS! NO GROUP WORK!The blank white paper is on top of the radio next to the phone. :) or use your sketchbook.Please work hard all period and if you finish one drawing, start another!On Tuesday we will start photographing these images interacting, so if you aren't finished on Tuesday you will have zero hall.EVERYONE (all art levels) WILL BE CREATING AN INTERACTIVE DRAWING!**Gregorio and Valentina may work on their projects for their art contest! Katherine, Savannah, Jordain, Celeste, Elisha, and April may work on revised sketches for their VANS designs.Stay off of your phones and messaging devices!You may listen to your own music with headphones... but don't waste time switching songs!
Best Wishes!A. StewART
