Over the last two lessons, you have worked on identifying your style and determining how to create it. You have even worked on plans for artwork to create. Now you will pull all of that planning together to create a piece of artwork in your style. You may use pencils, pastels, computer drawing programs, or paint to create your piece. You may also create a collage or even use the computer Tux Paint program.

Remember to take into consideration the characteristics of your style that you developed, as well as how you will critique your art piece. Your plans for artistic creations that you developed in the last lesson can serve as a basis for this artistic creation. Once you have completed your artwork, use the Critique worksheet to guide you in the critique of your work based on the characteristics you defined for your style of art. Use the Personal Art Portfolio rubric to see the grading for this assessment. This may help you when you develop your work.
