Week of Dec. 12th through 16th

Well, we have had quite a first half of the year. This week should be just as busy as all the others. However, the term busy can be substituted for 'fun' as well. This coming friday is our BETA Variety Show. Which is always fun. I will be performing as well. Stay tuned.
This week in art will be a laid back one. Nonetheless, we all need to stay busy. AP Art History, as usual, will stay on pace for this half of the semester. AP Art Studio has their half way deadline on the 15th. The rest of our studio classes will be working on a project of their choice for their 'final' this week.

RHS Art Students can ----->

1 Art I- Final (work of your choice)
BREAKFAST- practice for BETA Variety Show
2 PLANNING
3 AP Art History- continue study into the Renaissance
4 2D/3D - Final (work of your choice)
5 Advanced Art- Final (work of your choice)
6 AP Art Studio- Midway review
7 New Media- Commercial & Claymation

Our week beats your year,
Mr. Grizzle

Week of December 5th through 9th

     Winter break is quickly approaching. As a visual art department, we will be moving in at a pretty quick pace. Which is perfectly fine with me, I tend to work better at such a pace. Nonetheless, we will be continuing in drawing this week will ALL classes. We are doing this, because we all need it. Plus, doing life studies of certain things aids a lot of us for various reasons. This coming week we will be sketching and finishing draped cloth studies. Though they are not easy, the ideals of using and working with line, shape and value will be good for all of us. Including myself.
     In AP Art History we are now on pace to enter the Renaissance before break. Which makes me quite happy. The Renaissance is when art really starts to pick up and we begin to see masters work in grand detail.
     RHS Art studies can and will ------->
1 Art I- Draped cloth study. Students are to draw from life. Minimum of three sketchbook drawings and one 'finished' drawling by friday December 9th
BREAKFAST- There will be practice sessions for the BETA variety show
