SKETCHBOOK (Grades 11 & 12)

As mature artists, your sketchbook is less a collection of assignments, and more an


artistic journal. Your sketchbook documents your process of exploring ideas and
materials, and provides proof of your creative development. This tool helps you to
develop your identity as an artist. The only rule is that content must be appropriate for
school.

There are several methods for exploring the design process:

 Observation: draw what you see (ex. – objects, people, places)


 Interpretation: interpret an idea (ex. – what does joy look like to you?)
 Experimentation: explore different media and combinations of media
 Reflection: what is important to you? Where have you been? Where are you
going? Are there themes in your artistic interests?

Main Question: What does my sketchbook tell you about yourself –


as an artist and a human being?
