Your first homework is to go through our textbook and find your two favorite images. One with people and one without. Photograph yourself duplicating the image with people, as appropriate for school viewing, and send me a digital copy (arprice2@cps.edu). You can choose to be accurate to the time period or update the artwork to create a 2012 version (i.e. what would The Girl with the Pearl Earring wear today?). You can employ your friends and family to model in your photographs, but YOU must be somewhere in the image. Write a few sentences about each image that you liked, include why you chose it and what drew you to it...two short paragraphs.
HINT: ITALICIZE titles of artworks when you type! Send me the images and write-ups by Thursday September 13, 2012.
