Visual Journal Unit!!
The visual journal is a creative way to explore, express and record your thoughts, ideas, life’s experiences, emotional reactions and our inner world. The visual journal uses both visual and verbal communication, strengthening the understanding of both. It is also a tool to becoming a more observant person, to being more creative, more willing to take the risks necessary to learn. It is also about discovering our own ways of learning, as each person has a unique and individual thinking process.
In essence, the visual journal is not only a major component in our art making process, but in our process of learning about the world!!

Daily Visual Journal 2.10.12
The Great Wave off Kanagawa (神奈川沖浪裏 Kanagawa Oki Nami Ura?, lit. "Under a Wave off Kanagawa"), also known as The Great Wave or simply The Wave, is a woodblock print by the Japanese artist Hokusai. An example of ukiyo-e art, it was published sometime between 1830 and 1833[1] (during the Edo Period) as the first in Hokusai's series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (Fugaku sanjūrokkei (富嶽三十六景?)), and is his most famous work.

Daily Visual Journal 2.2.12
The first five minutes of every class is dedicated to a written reflection in our Visual Journals (Sketchbooks). Please remember to answer, in complete sentences, the following questions:
1. What do you think the artist is trying to convey in this piece? What is the message, feeling, call to action, or idea that you think about when you observe this artwork?
2. What clues did the artist use (thinking about our visual language: elements of art and principles of design) to convey the message, feelings or ideas? Remember to be specific in telling me where you see the clues!
J.M.W. Turner, Steamer in a Snowstorm. 1842. Oil on Canvas. 91.5 x 122 cm. Tate Gallery, London.
