I spent a good 4 hours setting up the blog and and editing/uploading photos of your work, so I expect you to spend at least that long on your work. It's really important to give and get comments from your peers, it will be an important tool for you in anything you might choose to do.
here's Fabio, our guest critic:
Final Critique Assignment | Due FRIDAY, MARCH 11 by 5PM.
Below I have uploaded photographs of everybody’s work.
I have already send everyone author invitations via your U of O e-mail account. Follow the instructions and log onto the blog.Below You see each person’s work uploaded in a separate post titled with their name (20 altogether, not counting the very first post that was titled “Highlights From the Term” and this post. You do not need to write comments for these).
For EACH PERSON (except for your own post) write AT LEAST 3 positive comments and 3 criticisms. The positive comments can focus on technique, style, content, development of ideas, humor, abstraction, use of material, boldness, line, experimentation and more. In your criticism you can address the same issues.
Other points to discuss: composition, execution, presentation, energy level in the work, is it interesting? What would you do differently etc. Try to think about what comments would be most useful for you and apply it in your writing. If you say you “like it” or “dislike it” you must say why. Ex: I like your composition… BECAUSE of the way you arrange and organize your shapes, your interesting cropping of figures etc etc.
-Make sure to SIGN your comments so I know who wrote what. If you are writing anonymously on the blog, e-mail me a copy of your writing with your name so I know it was you and I can grade your comments.
-BY FRIDAY you should have written 19 critiques altogether.
-EACH CRITIQUE should be AT LEAST 200 words long. The way you write will be taken into account to determine your grade. Whatever style writing you use, I want to see that it reflects thoughtfulness and respect for each person’s effort.
-In case you are unable to work with the blog you may send me your comments
VIA E-MAIL by the same deadline. I will also accept written (typed) critiques in my mailbox by the same time and deadline as the blog (Friday, 5PM). If you use either of these options make sure you indicate WHO you are critiquing and sign your name.
**I will send/upload 2-3 examples of well-written criticisms from our class to help you if you are stuck
or not sure how to start.
I have enjoyed this class, and I hope you all continue drawing and making art!
Good Luck, and Have a great spring break!
