Isaac bought a whole box of red ballpoint pens. So he gave Marie one. BTW, artists like Ed Fella have published whole books of ballpoint pen drawings! (Fella loves those 4-color pens with red-green-blue-black ink)

Can you guess which ID Card is Isaac’s and which one is Marie’s?

Week B1 Points

All points for B1 are now up on BeachBoard – be sure to check your points and know where you stand. Most students find Art 110 a fairly easy class if they turn everything in. If you start missing posts, your grade can sink fast. Try to stay on top of things! LMK if you’re having trouble or need any help.
