What to bring to class on Wednesday, September 2

When you come to class on Wednesday, remember to bring very particular items with you:

1. Your sketchbook with a pocket attached to the inside of the back cover like the one in this example:

*Speaking of sketchbooks...Lisa in the supply store made me aware that some of my students have been telling her that I want you to have a hard-bound sketchbook. I don't know where that miscommunication came from, but I don't care if the sketchbook you have is hard-bound, spiral bound, or any other binding you might come across. I only want it to be no smaller than 9"x12".

2. Your syllabus and all other materials I gave you during our introduction in your sketchbook pocket. I will have extra copies of documents for those of you who showed up after we ran out.

3. At least one article on 1-,2-,3-point linear perspective also in the pocket.

4. Your homework assignment completed and ready to hand in.

5. Materials for class:

* Drawing board (if you've been able to get one)

* Several sheets of 18"x24" WHITE heavyweight bond paper

* 4B, 6B drawing pencils

* Metal yardstick (without the cork or felt backing) or T-square (Lisa should have these in the supply store by then.)

* Eraser

* WORKABLE Fixative

6. A willingness to check all frustrations and negative vibes at the door and get to work.
