Some good sources for videos include

· ART21 ( www.pbs.org/art21/Links to an external site.).

Look for demonstrations of techniques and methods that are mentioned in the drawing and painting chapters.  We've all seen Bob Ross, so choose another aritst!

2. In your post:

· put the link to the video (make it a hyperlink so that readers just have to click on it)

· In 6-10 sentences, answer the following questions:

· Why did you choose this video?

· What is interesting to you about this technique?

· What do you think about this artist's work? Why?

· How is watching a video about an art technique different from reading about it in the textbook?

4. For your responses. (You can respond to any posts, regardless of which option you chose)

· Responses for Creative option: Which method to show shaded and light areas do you think this artist chose? Write a couple of sentences about the use of line or application of line, shape, or another element. 

· Responses for video option: Find a video you found interesting among your classmates' posts. In each response, state why you found that technique and/or artist's work interesting.
