29.10.2015–30.10.2015 On Thursday I returned to strengthening the lines with my pen. That pen I used is actually one that I've had ever since I began school from the first grade (I skipped preschool since it was optional back then) and it has been used for signing all the tests and all the school papers … Continue reading Course 1, Diary 12: Design a vehicle Part 2

Course 1, Diary 11: Design a vehicle Part 1
26.10.2015–28.10.2015 On Monday we began with an exercise: we had to pick a picture and make a mind map about the people in it. After that we had to make a plan for a vehicle of our own which these people would buy. I decided to make a bicycle for the man of the picture … Continue reading Course 1, Diary 11: Design a vehicle Part 1
Course 1, Diary 10: Subvert Part 3 & More writing
23.10.2015 Like I had expected, I did not manage to finish my subvert last night. I will finish it today after school. For this lesson I have to do something to pass time. I realized on this lesson that the fete the students of junior year prepare for senior year students in December near Christmas … Continue reading Course 1, Diary 10: Subvert Part 3 & More writing
Course 1, Diary 9: Subvert Part 2 & Writing my course diary
22.10.2015 I have my subvert thought and planned. I found the picture I need and downloaded it on my phone. I gave some thought for what I will put and where. That is all I could do on my phone, so I decided to start to write the course diary of yesterday and today on … Continue reading Course 1, Diary 9: Subvert Part 2 & Writing my course diary
Course 1, Diary 8: Self-portrait Part 4 & Subvert Part 1
21.10.2015 The next topic was making a subvert. Others started to move on to that and I took my black pencil and started to color the background. For the sake of keeping broken parts on chains visible in the dark, I added more blood to them. By the end of the lesson I was ready … Continue reading Course 1, Diary 8: Self-portrait Part 4 & Subvert Part 1
Course 1, Diary 7: Self-portrait Part 3
19.10.2015–20.10.2015 A new Monday after the holiday. It really is good to begin your school week after the autumn holiday (and normally) with a double lesson of visual arts. I was ready to continue my self-portrait (I believe I had too much inspiration left from continuing a personal project of mine on Sunday). I had … Continue reading Course 1, Diary 7: Self-portrait Part 3
Course 1, Diary 6: Self-portrait Part 2
7.10.2015–8.10.215 Like I said in the previous journal entry, I discarded the idea I had gotten. This decision came after the lesson as I thought about a rough idea I have had for some time. I have wanted to do it for a good while, but I haven't had time for it. I decided that … Continue reading Course 1, Diary 6: Self-portrait Part 2
Course 1, Diary 5: Self-portrait Part 1
6.10.2015 The presentations have been given. Now it was time to move on to the next topic: making a self-portrait. As was expected, everyone got horrified. "I can't draw!" many – including me – said. But we are in luck: we can choose any style of modern art or modernism. The portrait does not even … Continue reading Course 1, Diary 5: Self-portrait Part 1
Course 1, Diary 4: A presentation about pointillism Part 2
5.10.2015 Monday. Visual arts' double lesson. Starting as the first lesson of the day, right at 8. It is a good idea to put students to give their presentations to the rest of the class at this very moment. If you want them to have a lot of fails in front of the class, that … Continue reading Course 1, Diary 4: A presentation about pointillism Part 2
Course 1, Diary 3: An art relationship test and art museum
2.10.2015 Eerika and I finished our presentation on Thursday, but not everyone else managed to do that. The teacher gave some exercises for those who were ready already, but everything backfired on this Friday: there was a baccalaureate test exercise and the computer mice had been taken for them. Of course our school has desktop … Continue reading Course 1, Diary 3: An art relationship test and art museum
