A student sent me a message about his work. We discussed things back and forth. Here is an excerpt of that conversation:
Student: Can we paint one of the pages in the conservation project on another page separate from the book?
Me: Yes! That is fine. As long as you have several in your sketchbook, it's fine to have some that are separate. Can't wait to see how the illustrations are coming along FYI: I'm going to do a periodical review of them soon. I'll announce this when we come back to school. I'll give everybody a week's notice to have half of the sketches finished. Since 16 will be due at the end, the review will be to see that everyone has half of them completed (so...I'll be looking to see that everybody has around 8 small sketches of consumer items).
Student: Ok thanks... electricity counts right?
Me: Yes! If you can show what type of item might be utilized to expend the energy/electricity, I think that will be a great addition to your sketches...Good idea!
Student: Would this work? Ps I don't know what's goin in the other box lol (student attached progress picture to message)
Me: Wow! Yessss! This is so cool! I love the lettering, too. Great ideas, here! The whole idea of being "plugged in" is very clear, and makes the whole theme come together...
Student: Ok thanks…If I get it finished I’ll send you a picture
Me: Nice! That sounds great!
Student sent picture of finished work this morning. (***See progress picture, and finished work below...)
