Today in studio class, the students had to do a critique on their
watercolor paintings. None of them have done a critique before so it was a
slight challenge at first. Many of them did not know how to give comments and
feedback on others work. Most of the students were also too self-conscious to
even speak about their work or their peers work. So I decided that it would be
best that the students walked around the class and gave the students each a
grade and comment on a sheet of paper. This way each of the students would be
critiqued and graded by everyone. The students had to as well write a response
on what they believe they should get and complete their rubric. It was great to
see the students evaluate their work and others for once.

In my drawing and painting class, the students have begun a
new project. They have to create a series of 5 squares that work together in a
theme. Most students found this easy to do and chose something of their
interest. Once the students had chosen an idea, they had to sketch them out and
figure out which color scheme should be used for each. The students had to
create an image that is monochromatic, complementary, analogous, neutral, and
black and white. I found the color schemes to be the hardest part for the
students. I was glad to help them execute what would be the most successful.
