Website/blog

Combined, your sketchbook and website/blog will provide places to practice, research, plan, analyze, comment, generate new ideas and display finished work. Follow all directions carefully but think for yourself while solving the problems that have been posed. Work in your sketchbook DAILY. Post your studio PROCESS to your blog WEEKLY. Update your online gallery REGULARLY; it will become an invaluable tool when curating a body of work an preparing a portfolio for college. etc.

HOW TO WEEBLY! DUE Oct. 15th

10/6/2018

 
Weebly is an easy, intuitive, and FREE web-hosting service. There ARE paid options but you DO NOT need any of that right now. 

My challenge to you is to see how far you can get with setting up your Weebly website ON YOUR OWN by following these steps:
  1. Using CHROME as your browser (Weebly does not like Firefox! I am unsure about Safari), GO HERE to set up your FREE account. 
  2. If you are asked about selling things, select "not now"
  3. Scroll through the MANY template offerings - the Portfolio or Personal options are good ones to look at. The template can be changed so don't be too worried making a permanent choice right this second.
  4. Click "Start Editing"
  5. Select your domain name - this is what will be in your URL and can be different than what you title your site. Look at student examples to understand the range of options. 
  6. Create 3 pages with tall or short headers (page names and header options can be changed later, once you have a better sense of things):
    1. "ABOUT" or "HOME" (Standard page)(the landing page; who are you/what can viewers expect?)
    2. "BLOG" (Blog page)(an archived collection of posts that illustrate your growth and development as an artist/critical thinker)
    3. "GALLERY" (Standard page) (a curated collection of your finished art)
    4. NOTE:  Additional pages and elements can be added as you continue to build upon this resource, which is personal, cumulative, and easily editable.
  7. Send me your URL (example: https://www.mosleyart.com/) by the homework deadline (and so that I can add it to the Student Webpage directory on mosleyart.com).

LET'S SEE IF YOU CAN GET THIS FAR ON YOUR OWN. Keep going if you can!
