No books due this week, but be sure that you are researching all sites that are posted on the board. Make sure you are photographing work in progress! You should be making sketches, and reflecting on ideas and thoughts as you work!

Keep in mind the discussion we had in class about FINDING YOUR OWN VOICE!
Reflect on how artists find their own voice? How does their culture and enviroment and even their economic status affect what kind of art they produce? What affects your work? What do you find beautiful?
