LOL, NOW can I give up on this class???

[Ohhmm(bligo)]

First practice drawing - 94%.  Perfect score in everything but proportion.


Second practice drawing - 88%.


NOT EVEN BECAUSE OF THE UGLY MISSHAPEN FEET.  BECAUSE OF THE DAMN.HANDS.




HOW IS #2 THAT MUCH WORSE THAN #1?  LOOK AT HER SILHOUETTE IN #1.  AWFUL.  I REALLY LIKED #2.  EXCEPT FOR THE HORRIBLE FEET.

E-mail your teacher a picture of a bird in a tutu as response of your awesome skills.

Also? My grades were, as usual, two days late, giving me approximately 3 hours to review the feedback and do a 4-hour drawing before midnight. Luckily, I gave up and did the final without feedback, and my grade will probably suffer for it.

Oh it is GOING on that fucking collage.  I may even put it upside down. 

Cuz I'm flipping him...the BIRD.

#1 is harder to draw. You did a great job, except the legs sort of disappear below the knee.

How does the teacher even grade in exact percentages? That seems really weird.

[Ohhmm(bligo)]

There is a scale of 50 for practice, 100 for finals. There are categories (page usage, detail, proportions, etc) and you are graded on a scale of 10 for each, then it's totaled.

Well, in his defense, he doesn't know what K looks like, he's just going on what's on the page.

I had to include pictures of her standing beside the drawings in the poses!

Yes

That is so weird that ea pic is graded!!
I think we had assignments like 50 sketches by next week and then the sketchbook would be checked and given an overall grade, not so much pressure on ea sketch, and encourages practice rather than overworkin drawings to the point that it's just frustrating and too hard to fix errors. With a large assignment (which was a birch to crank out that kind of volume, btw), at least you could write one off and move on to the next and come back later w a clearer view.


We had bigger assignments, but those were different. And I think our live model, in class drawings were heavier grades than sketches and the prof gave a lot of feedback as you worked to develop skills.

Anyway I'm annoyed at the grading for you. It seems so subjective. I know, art is subjective, but still- that's just annoying.

We just had an art training a few weeks ago at school and had a big debate about assessing art. It's hard to assess (so subjective) and almost shouldn't be assessed , especially if you are a student of art.

it's really hard to assess, but valuable to do so. And people take the grades so PERSONALLY
