For the purpose of making the classroom environment and studio time beneficial
to ALL students by limiting behavior which distracts from students ability to
concentrate on their work, please employ the following guidelines:
no eating in class (use break time)
-
no beepers, cell phones-NO TEXT MESSAGING! IPODS etc. are OK as long as lecture or critique is not
-
taking place
-
use studio time for assigned work
(not math assignments, writing letters, etc

encouraged, but try and not disturb the class as a whole, if so, you will be
asked to leave the class room by the instructor.
-
BREAK: There will be a 15
minute break at mid-class each day
Ill. GRADING
Grading is based on both in‑class
paintings and watercolor homework assignments.
Generally, persons who extend a
reasonable effort and MEET ALL THE REQUIREMENTS (assignments, attendance, etc.)
will attain at lease a "C" level, although there are, of course, no
guarantees. A "C" level grade from this course on your transcripts or
resumes signifies that you are COMPETENT in your painting abilities regarding
the above stated outcomes.
"B" level will require an
above average; reasonably complete mastery of the painting outcomes..
An "A" level will
additionally require outstanding skill development, illustrated by exceptional
paintings completed in both the homework and in‑class assignments.

first day of the class. You are required to have these materials
available to you DURING CLASS. Lockers are provided for this
purpose. DO NOT COUNT ON PURCHASING MATERIALS DURING THE CLASS STUDIO -
