Sketchbook Reviews –
These reviews are done the first class meeting every other week.
AP students
are
responsible for showing their sketches to the instructor. If a student does
not have any new sketches
at this
review, it is the student’s
responsibility to complete new
sketches before the end of the week
and
share them
with the instructor.
Artwork To Be Photographed
– Students are responsible for labeling their
work when it
is ready to be
photographed. Artwork should be labeled with a
post-it when ready to be photographed for your portfolio.
Students are
expected to have work ready to be
photographed every two weeks.
Slide Reviews/Binder Preparation – When slides have been developed and
given to the
AP students, each
student is responsible for putting them in
their individual AP binder
according to the three categories for the
AP Studio
portfolio.
Critiques/Evaluations –
Students are responsible for learning how to critique
and evaluate
their own work as
well as other student’s work. Individual
evaluations will be scheduled between the AP
teacher and each student.
These evaluations will be done several times
each semester and will be
scheduled
outside of class time for
individual attention.
Field Trips/Museum Visits
– Field trips and museum visits will be organized
for this
course.
It is the
expectation
of this class that AP students will
attend
class field trips and
visit the local art museums on their
own. Please see
link below for the local museums in
San Francisco.
Artists’ Studios and Artist Workshops – In the fall semester (October/November), AP
students will be required
to
visit artists’ studios during San
Francisco Open Studios.
If local museums are offering artist workshops,
AP
students may be required to attend
one of the workshops.
