Artist Statement due Tuesday

Instead of a sketchbook assignment this week you have been asked to write an artist statement for your Scholastic Portfolio. If you are not a senior or you don't want to do a Scholastic Portfolio you can complete a sketchbook assignment.

http://www.scholastic.com/artandwritingawards/enter.htm


Please address the following in a statement no less than 300 words and no more than 750 words.

1. Why did you select the images for your Scholastic portfolio? You will eventually need to select 8 images for your portfolio. You know what you've created and what will most likely end up in the portfolio. Do your best!

2. How do you hope people will respond to your work?

3. What role does art/photography play in your life?

You will also need to make a blog comment. Speaking of which, you don't need to wait for me to assign additions to your blog. Feel free at anytime to add images, poll's, text, whatever! Make it yours.

See you Tuesday :)
