2017 Art 45 Exam

The Finishing Touches

The Final Exam for ALL ART 45 students​
Now that this year has come to an end, it is time to wrap things up and finish on a very positive note.  Many of you will attend art school, while others may have just finished the final art course of your lives.  This year, the final exam for ART 45 consists of two distinct parts.

Part One:  
Complete your online portfolio.  This means ALL of your work is well documented and posted on your portfolio, and ALL of your artist studies are posted as well.  CLICK HERE  more information about how I will be evaluating the portfolios.

Part Two:  
Please thoroughly answer the questions listed below, and include them in the critique log that we have been using for this class.  The title of your critique log entry should be "My Final Thoughts".  These questions should be answered in an informal blog-style, and should not read as a simple list of questions and answers. I ask that you take this assignment seriously as you reflect on all that you've accomplished and experienced during your time at DRHSART.  

1. Over the course of Art 4 and Art 5 each of you has had the freedom to develop a personal visual voice.  Please articulate the stylistic tendencies you’ve adopted, being sure to mention the process, materials, and subjects you have investigated.
2. Please discuss the investment you’ve made in becoming the best artist you can be, including specific examples of the sacrifices you have made for the betterment of your creative work.
3. If you could re-live this past year as an art student, what would you do differently?
4. Describe an artistic accomplishment from the last two years of which you are proud.
5. Describe your most memorable experience from your time at  DRHSART?
6. Provide a little advice to the future students of this program to help them get the most from it.
