Your Sketchbook theme for Week One is Meet the Artist!

Create a meet the artist page for yourself in your Sketchbook! Search for a “Meet the Artist” Illustration. This should include a portrait, objects that are important to you, likes, dislikes, etc. You can either work on this in your sketchbook or on separate paper. If you work in color limit the palette to no more than 5 colors. You can create with traditional or digital media. I suggest working 8×8, or 8×10, etc. You can always scale the work down. 

Search #meettheartist to get inspired, and then design one to introduce yourself to the class.  You may use any media and style you feel is appropriate and that you are proficient in!  See pdf for samples.

You may choose to include any information about yourself in your meet the artist illustration. The content is entirely up to you. See the pdf below for more samples.
