process sketchblog/journal

 

Sketchblogs/journals will be maintained and sustained by each course participant and should compile all rough project sketches, writings, storyboards, architectures and related materials to the works in progress and finished works. The sketchbook will be used as reference for grading and end of project evaluation, so it's imperative that each student's sketchblog be consistently updated with all class coursework.

Questions to always address within your sketchbook/blog include but are not limited to:

Who are the artists who have influenced this work?
What artwork presently or in history would fall into the category of the work I'm making?
Why am I making choices with imagery, color, location, permanence? How do these choices effect/relate to my concept?
What do I want the viewer to see/understand/take away from my work?
What is unsuccessful about this work? Can it be changed?
What is successful about this work? Can it be built upon?
