Enjoy your visit to the Botanical Gardens this week! Be sure to collect brochures, literature, and make notes on specific artists (with contact details if available) whose work you admire. You may include any relevant information you collect in your submission for class. The more you gather on artists working in a direction you can see yourself going, the more clarity you will gain for your own career path.
Last week, I asked you to brainstorm ideas in your course notebook for the Christmas Fund Raiser, by drawing thumbnail sketches. Next week we will discuss your ideas in greater depth. Make sure you sketch a minimum of 20 ideas. This is the beginning of the creative process for design!
Take care, and see you next week!
