Although I think the composition of this piece is awful (split right in half), the trick here is super cool!  Check it out.  If you are having Photoshop trouble, there are LOTS of youtube tutorials.  Type in your issue and search.

Art 2

Leonardo da Vinci made thousands of exploratory sketches.  Here is one of the pages from his sketchbook.  Remember, this is the same artist that painted the Mona Lisa.

Watch the following video about layering in Photoshop.
Don't forget that your 16-24 photos are due to me by Friday during class.  Late work will be given half credit.  You will need these photos next week for a major project.

Art 1

Animal block print
This was done with linoleum.  The artist cut out all of the white areas and left the black to make a sort of stamp called a "block" for printing.
