Ok, since nobody was ready to teach for September, I'll take this month. I'll do it a bit differently from the way I have in the past, however. This will be a long thread with a few assignments, kinda like Advanced Math, but not as involved. I will continue to update this first post, and it will be your job to check in regularly and to participate in this thread and keep track of your own points. At the end of the month, the person with the most points will get a small RAK from me. If there is a tie, I will draw a name from a hat.
My first assignment for you is for you to take a pic of a piece of art *in your home* and post it in this thread. This first mini assignment is worth 25 Art points.
Everyone have their art posted? If not, no worries! You still have time!
My second assignment for you is to create a layout. But not just *any* layout. A layout inspired by the art piece from your home that you posted (even if it's your 18-month-old's art!) You can take the colors, design, medium... it's totally up to you! This assignment is worth 125 Art points.
Your third assignment, a mini, is to create something with your art supplies. It doesn't have to be a layout, but something scrappy. You can even just play with paint and make a tag. Whatever inspires you! This mini assignment is worth 25 Art points.

Lol! The only "art" in my house is my 18 month old daughters "drawings"! I'll get a pic of something up.

Anyone else playing along? Here's mine. We purchased this piece directly from the artist, Elke Groves. We had an open house/wine tasting/art show here at the house, and she showed her art. She let us keep it up for a few weeks, and we ended up buying this piece. Giraffes were Charli's first favorite animals. Technically the painting (watercolors) is hers, but we'll watch it for her 'til she's ready for it!
