• DUE WEDNESDAY = SB CHECK
• DUE ASAP but no later than WED. =  Print of the Old Master figure drawing (or portrait) that you wish to copy. Look for a LARGE, HIGH RESOLUTION image and one that has significant/interesting mark-making. It is ESSENTIAL that you can zoom in to clearly see the individual marks (you need to copy these in all their detail, so the type, quality, and clarity of mark is critical). 
• DUE FRIDAY = Mural sketch
• WEEKLY:
  • Check itslearning/mosleyart.com each Sunday evening, in order to be prepared for the week.
  • Once introduced, Artist Spotlight entries are to be complete by the same day of the next week.
