Crown Power
Based on a selection of 10 drawings from your 300 gestural memory, imagined, and observed sketches, design a clay crown that celebrates a particular set of ideas, communicates a concept, or is a reminder to oneself.
Four Footed Fantastical Beasts
Students groups constructed mixed media sculptures referencing the humanoid creatures in Edward Topsell’s The History of Four-footed Beasts and Serpents Woodcuts, 1565.
Shelf
Everyone in the class was given a wooden shelf, 7x24 inches. The task was to create an artwork that somehow included the shelf and used both 2D and 3D approaches. To get ideas started, students could choose one word as a point of departure: Overgrown, Remembered or Obsession.
