Week B3

Monday 1 October – Meet in Psy-150 – Activity: ePortfolios
Wednesday 3 October – Meet in SOA Gallery Courtyard – Conversations with Student Artists

students sitting on a large stone — Isaac & Marie drawing “ID Cards” in the SOA Gallery Courtyard

close up of hands holding red ballpoint pens — 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)

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.
