1. Create 3 value studies (about 3"x5" each) of existing book covers. (Be sure to bring the books to class with you on Thursday!
2. Finish your value scales from class and continue to practice your drawing motor skills.
3. Read Words About Pictures by Perry Nodelman, Chapters 2 and 5
4. Bring in a book for LOOK AT BOOKS that applies concepts we used in class #1: How are the elements of design leading your eye around the page? How does the artist's choice of format, size, framing or full-bleed illustration give the viewer different experiences?
5. Start collecting color swatches of colors that appeal to you. Keep them in a small box or folder.
6. Start collecting show boxes or small cardboard boxes and containers that can be destroyed.
7. Be thinking about the book you would like to use for your final presentation. Your title will be due Thursday or Tuesday and your book will be pulled aside so that it can't be used in class discussions.
