Setting GOALS

One of the essential parts of an Advanced Art class is for each individual person to think about where they are in their own art making journey and reflect on what they WANT and what they NEED. The class is not a race with winners and losers, but it is a journey that we are on together and it would be great if we all feel accomplished at the end.
My teaching goals include; getting to know my students (better) as individual artists and people, creating a safe, inclusive and inviting place for making artwork, and also finding and sharing some inspiration and technical information.
My professional goals include using; technology to communicate clearly, which include using this BLOG, the grade program Synergy! and Google Classroom, and to integrate more with the Portland Art community including Portland Art Museum, local galleries, lectures etc..   We will begin with the Diebenkorn show and other landscapes at the PAM. *Lecture on 9/8!
