Home Work for Tuesday, January 25th

Hello Guys!

Okay.... just like we discussed in class on Thursday I want you to...
  • Purchase a PhotoShop Book for Half Price that you can use it class (Try and make it a CS4 Book... that will be the most helpful to you while you are working at school (this should run you around $20).                                                  
*Cathy did say she had some books that she will bring up here that we can look at in class, but I would still have one of your own just in case.
  • Look into purchasing an External Hard Drive or a large USB Flash Drive (if you get a Hard Drive look into one that does not require you to have an external power source and runs off of USB). Hard Drives are a little more expensive (around $60, but 16 GB Flash Drive will run around $40 so it is up to you).
  • Take some photographs of either landscape, architecture or both and an object or two that you would like to place into the photo after you enlarge it (take a bunch of photos just in case some of them end up being blurry or you don't like the way they look).
  • Find an artist online who works in Scale (ie - either an artist who tends to make things look really big or really small... they can work in any medium - painting, drawing, digital, photography, etc)
Let me know if you have any questions!

See you on Tuesday

    The artist I found is Ron Mueck. The site is

    I hope you enjoy his work. I find it very interesting. The Modern Art museum in Fort Worth has one on his pieces in their permanent collection.

    I like the playfulness of Tom Otterness. He's even made bronze playgrounds and frogs and my fave may be outside the Beverly Hills civic offices, entitled, "Big Big Penny", it is-you guessed it!

    Ben Heine is a digital artist and painter. He works mainly on portraits, but has also created photo-manipulations including animals, turning small creatures into giants.

    His art seems so interesting. I like how its so random and so diffrent from the next art piece. I mostly like the eye ball sculpture that is in Chicago.
