=Portfolios= Download these instructions in printable form. Over the course of the semester, IS students will produce a minimum of 10 artworks. No more of two of which should be in the same genre or the same medium. IS students to explore at least 4 different idioms, although obviously their works will, and ought to be in their own personal style. No more than two of the 10 works should be in the same historical idiom.

What Colleges Are Looking For
Whether for scholarships, or acceptance into an Art program, many colleges and universities ask for a portfolio like this:
 * 10 images of your artwork on a CD, not to exceed 1-24x768 pixels, JPEG format or photos/digital prints (but NOT a PowerPoint)
 * A numbered image list giving title, date and dimensions of each art work
 * Label each image with your last name and a number corresponding to the image (i.e., Smith01.jpg)

What should I make?
You may try either google searches or google-image searches for any of the idioms or exemplars, or, you may have better luck searching for them on one of the following Web sites" Wildlife Animal Figure Portrait Self.Portrait Still.Life Botanical Room.Interior Cityscape Fantasy Illustration Commercial Analogy Mythology Religious Historic Narrative Cartoon Comic Caricature Genre(slice.of.life) || Oil Acrylic Tempera Gouache Watercolor Mono.Print Ink.Wash Pen&Ink Collage Graphite Colored.Pencil Conte Charcoal Crayon Scratch.Board Photography Photoshop || Neoclassical///Jacques.Louis.David// Baroque///Caravaggio// Romantic///Eugène.Delacroix// Impressionism///Edgar.Degas// Post.Impressionism///Paul.Gaugin// Fauvism///Henri.Matisse// Expressionism///Edvard.Munch// Symbolism///Gustav.Klimt// Modernism///Marc.Chagall// Analytic.Cubism///Georges.Braque// Synthetic.Cubism///Juan.Gris// Futurism///Umberto.Boccioni// Daddaism///Marcel.Duchamp// Surrealism///Salvador.Dali// Regionalism/T//homas.Hart.Benton// Precisionism///Georgia.O'keefe// Social.Realism///Jacob.Lawrence// Ash.Can/E//dward.Hopper// Abstract.Expressionism/Wiliem.deKooning Color.Field///Mark.Rothko// Minimalism///Frank.Stella// Pop.Art///Andy.Warhol// Photo.Realism///Chuck.Close// ||

Assesment
IndStu. students will complete an evaluation rubric and an explanation/reflection document for each artwork which will be provided by the instructor.

Recording
Each finished artwork will be photographed and saved in a number of digital formats which the student may use for submission to college Art programs, scholarship committees, or potential employers or freelance clients. These will be burned on a CD or DVDR at the end of the semester which students will take with them. Digital files can be saved to flash-drive or emailed to the student, posted on this wiki or the school Web site.

If you'd like, I can assign each of you your own gallery page on this Wiki, like I'm doing for Painting students on that class wiki.

**Deadlines**
You will have 18 weeks (one semester) to complete 10 Artworks. Students must complete a minimum of 9 artworks to receive a 'B' for the Semester. You may choose to produce one work per week. You should be able to submit a finished work every Friday.
