Thank you to all who turned in your essay and gave thoughtful presentations on the contemporary artist you reserached.
We worked a bit in the sketchbooks from the still life after I introduced thumnail sketches. Note that you'll need at least 4-5 of these for your mid term project (Paper Bag drawings Due march 1).
