Did the quantity of grid constructions, collage and drawing stimulate comprehensive inventions? Did working with grids and collage permit a magnification and deconstruction of image elements to extend drawing experiments? Did the artist explore combinations of pen, ink wash and watercolor media in their black-and-white and color investigations?
Evidence of Improving Technical Ability
Regardless of artistic ability, idea invention can be present in your "sandbox of play" despite rendering issues. Do drawings improve? Or are they rushed, hurried and disconnected from assignment parameters? Reference video, blog, and course pack examples.
Adherence to lesson parameters. This includes using course pack materials as they are outlined to ease and emulate starting points in provided examples. While individual invention is enlisted heavily in every lesson, project parameters are clear and should be followed. Abandonment of directives is not considered a creative license, it’s considered “not following instructions.” Did the student use the requisite grid template?
The prompt and collection nature of each lesson permits ideas, energy and associations to bleed from one page to the next. Lesson completeness can be reflected by quantity of pages and/or comprehensive idea development. Confident drawing should also develop and be visible from the first page in the lesson to the next. If work is being consistently attempted, then familiarity with the process results and more fearless attempts are made upon successive drawing pages.
