Everyone in Art Principles will be receiving a sketchbook that you will be working on the entire year. I would like you to look at the suggested themes listed below and on the sketchbook website and begin to consider which themes would work for you. Which themes could you work on and create work that was interesting? Which themes could you sustain for the entire year? These themes would most likely evolve into new ideas and themes.......this of course would be wonderful.

  1. "Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain
    an artist once we grow up."
    -Pablo Picasso

    I think to remain an artist, you have to maintain a free flowing imagination. Every child has a wild imagination. Adults follow rules: You can do this, you can't do that. Children don't have rules like that. ART doesn't have rules like that. Art is about being crazy, wild, and unrestrained, just like a child
