Sketchbook assignments are due every Thursday!

Pick any one from the list and spend 20-30 minutes drawing.  

You must the page with the title of the prompt you chose and the date. 

Make sure I know which page to look at - use a book mark, paperclip, or fold the page corner. 

 

They are graded with a checklist:

10 pts total

1. Did you follow the drawing prompt and/or complete the assigned questions? 5 pts

2. Is it properly titled and dated? 1 pt

3. Did you put effort and care into it, and take at least 20-30 minutes to complete it? 4 pts

For each day late (unless absent), it is -1 point 

 

You can use any medium (pencil, marker, paint, etc), and any style (realistic, cartoony, etc). 
 

You may NOT use stick figures!  If you really can’t draw people, at the very least try basic shapes people.
