First Week Assignments in AP Art - Mixed Media

Last Friday AP Art students got their sketchbooks and we did a mixed media assignment focusing on text as a design element.

The whole class gathered around the back table filled with gesso, acrylic paint, liquid watercolors, stamps and stencils.  Students had fun playing with the different media, building up layers and creating a composition that spread across two pages in their books.

Here are a few examples from the students' books.
