The end of the quarter brings these requirements:

1. Completed final projects - self-portrait and landscape or still-life
2. Website slide show created in Photoshop containing all projects done for this class: tonal/color correction, modified artist's image, layers project, and two final projects. These should be labelled as shown here:
   • yourname_vignette
   • yourname_corrections
   • yourname_artist
   • yourname_layers
   • yourname_final1
   • yourname_final2

   For the layers project, do include the original finished version, WITH ALL LAYERS STILL SEPARATE.

   In addition, you should include any work you've created that you feel is exceptional or that I've made comments about.

3. Written artist statement file, available at: http://www. I will show you in class how to modify it.
4. Written artist statement and slide show containing all work must be burned to CD and submitted to the instructor.
5. Brief oral presentation in class during the final class session

1. Striving for a higher aesthetic: students are expected to read the tutorials ( available on all systems in the classroom under the "Better Art" bookmark ) on Design / Composition and Color Theory, and apply these principles to the projects created for these courses. The composition and use of color in the finished pieces should reflect your readings on these topics and application of these principles to your art, resulting in more professional and refined work.
2. Evident mastery of medium : all components of the work should show that they are created intentionally. Marks and shapes should be placed deliberately. It should be obvious that the student understands how to employ the software / hardware tools, and exercises control over the medium. The design and execution of image should be orderly, well-planned, and professional. It should appear that you have spent at least 10 - 20 hours of serious effort on the piece.
