We complete our Autobiographical Comics in the next couple classes. This is the first grade for the 4th quarter! We will have a publishing party when everything is complete. We will primarily be working with colored pencils and markers to make our comics POP!
Please, ask your scholar about the progress of their autobiographical comic ...you might have made an appearance in their story!

8th Grade Spelman & Morehouse

| "Shantavia Beale" by Kehinde Wiley |
Spelman artists will have a class critique in the next class and then will venture into the next project based on the work of artist Kehinde Wiley, who currently has an amazing and WONDERFUL show at the Brooklyn Museum called A New Republic. Wiley uses famous old portraits to redefine portraiture in the African American community using pattern and fashion. This project we are doing is inspired by his work.
7th Grade FAMU & Howard
Micrography work should be completed by now and we will critique those. Then...we delve into the next project.
