Goals: Increase comfort level of working quickly with paint to express design ideas. Each class session you will have the opportunity to paint several sketch studies and some full-length larger paintings. You will be asked to produce several small paintings from life for each Monday, Thursday, Friday session. Select your favorite 5 paintings each week. 25 paintings will be due for review at the end of each 5-week session. You are welcome to work in a variety of media. I will be demonstrating in acrylic.

Grading is based heavily on attendance, skill increase, and diligent work. Paintings will be reviewed weekly and due at the end of each 5 week session.

Grading: % of Final Grade 25 paintings per 5 weeks/field trip sketches………………..50 Value Study (Gray scale)/ Color Matching Project...............5 Copy Project 1……………………………………….……......................15 Copy Project 2……………………………………….……......................15 Attendance/Class Participation………….………………..………15 •Students will be evaluated on the basis of class participation, preparedness and focus during in-class workdays, attendance, weekly drawing assignments, and the final individual projects/portfolios. The following grading scale will be used: A = 100-90; B = 89-80; C = 79-70; D = 69-60; F = 59 or lower Supply List: • Grey Pallet for paint mixing, or disposable grey pallet paper (ideal) or white. • Acrylic brushes-A variety of sizes. I prefer Flats, Filberts and Brights. You will want a couple fairly large brushes, and at least one tiny round for highlights and details. • A larger 2”-4” bristle brush for overall toning washes and gesso application when needed. (Jason will have a few available to all drawing/painting lab students) • Acrylic Paint- Required: Ultramarine Blue, Cadmium Red, Cad Yellow Med, Black, a big tube of White, Violet/Purple, and Raw Umber (You are welcome to buy as many colors as you like) Other personal favorites of mine are: Pthalo Green, Aliz. Crimson Red, Burnt Umber, Raw Sienna, Cerulean Blue, Pthalo Blue, Cadmium Yellow Lt. • Spray bottle (not required but really useful for keeping your paints wet in your pallet) • Water Container • Clear Acrylic Medium-(this is optional but I like to work with it) • Pallet Knife • Paper Towels • Plastic Wrap-(for saving mixed paint) • A Pad of Bristol Board (you will prepare this for painting by applying gesso to both sides) • 8.5”x11” Sketchbook • White and/or Kneaded Eraser • Pencils for field trip drawings (No 2 is ok. You are welcome to buy art pencils if you wish) • 2 18”X24” or larger pre-stretched canvases for your copy paintings • Heavy paper. You are welcome to purchase heavy paper, bristol board, or rolls of pre- primed canvas to paint on. You are also welcome to paint on the backside of cardboard boxes. I prefer cereal or cracker boxes. The cardboard of these boxes take paint well and are inexpensive. NO corrugated cardboard in class please. I like to work on disposable materials so the work looses its preciousness. I also like to work on material that can ultimately be framed or photographed for your portfolios. Start saving those cardboard boxes now. You will be painting numerous of quick paintings in this class. We will work at minimum two days a week from a live model. We will present the best 25 paintings from each student every 5 weeks. (Jason is buying a gallon of gesso for the class. One this is empty, the class may need to purchase another. I like to tint the gesso grey for a neutral background.) ATTENDANCE: •Grades will be lowered for absenteeism in this class. As there is no outside reading, the majority of information is given during the class periods. So, plan to attend all classes and labs. Department regulations allow each student 3 unexcused absences. Unexcused absences in excess of 3 will result in a loss of points and a lowered grade. If class time is missed, you are expected to make up your work. Any adjustment of schedules must be made one week in advance, in writing and agreed to by professor. •Tardiness will also be heavily penalized. 2 “tardies” = one absence. • Religious Holy Days By UT Austin policy, you must notify me of your pending absence at least fourteen days prior to the date of observance of a religious holy day. If you must miss a class, an examination, a work assignment, or a project in order to observe a religious holy day, I will give you an opportunity to complete the missed work within a reasonable time after the absence. For the purpose of this class, I am defining a reasonable time as being no later than the end of class time of the next class date. •The University of Texas provides on request appropriate academic accommodations for qualified students with disabilities. At the beginning of the semester, students who need special accommodations should notify the instructor by presenting a letter prepared by the Service for Students with Disabilities (SSD) Office. Disabilities range from visual, hearing, and movement impairments to Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, psychological disorders (bipolar disorder, depression, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, etc.), and chronic health conditions (diabetes, multiple sclerosis, cancer, etc.). These also include from temporary disabilities such as broken bones, recovery from surgery, etc.

  • Healing and Belonging: Community Based Art and Community Formation in West Oakland
    Healing and Belonging: Community Based Art and Community Formation in West Oakland Pablo Cerdera Honors Thesis in Comparative American Studies Advisor: Wendy Kozol 4/22/2015 Pablo Cerdera 4/22/2015 Acknowledgements- Before I begin my thesis, I would like to take the opportunity to thank all of the people without whom what you are about to read would not have been possible. First of all I want to thank Brett Cook: for producing inspiring artworks with a compelling process which motivated me to pursue this project; for the incredible degree of openness and joy he brought to all of our interactions; and for being so accommodating to my (many) requests to have questions answered. I am also incredibly indebted to all of the members of the Oakland community who were so open with this stranger in their midst and who were so willing to talk to me about their lives, their communities, and their thoughts about art and social change. I am so grateful for everyone who took the time to talk to me; I know all of you had other things to do. I’d like to highlight the kind people who hosted me and helped me find my way when I was still getting my bearings in Oakland, most notably Keith Spencer, without whose generosity in inviting me into his co-operative home I would not have been able to spend the time I needed build real connections with West Oakland and the people there. I’d also like to thank my academic advisors and mentors, most notably Professors Wendy Kozol, Shelley Lee, Afia Ofori-Mensa and Gina Perez, whose consistent encouragement, motivation, and challenging, was so important for me in the creation of this piece.

    2019 Conference of the Universities Art Room AssociationDufferin of Canada Back to schedule Congrès 2019 de l’Association d’art des universités du Canada October 25–27 octobre 2019 Hilton Quebec 1 Message du président L’intérêt grandissant que suscite le congrès de l’AAUC fait en sorte que nous devons nous adapter à la croissance tout en préservant le caractère informel qui, au fil de plusieurs décennies, s’est avéré adaptable et productif. Cette situation enviable explique que le congrès de cette année se déroule dans un centre de congrès, un format qui sera de plus en plus important à l’avenir. Je suis heureux de terminer mon mandat de président lors de cet événement remarquable et dans ce cadre magnifique. Je tiens à remercier les organisateurs Ersy Contogouris, Erin Silver et Maxime Coulombe, et je suis ravi de voir le nouveau numéro de RACAR, qu’Ersy a codirigé avec Mélanie Boucher, et qui porte sur les tableaux vivants. Je remercie également Fran Pauzé, l’administratrice de l’AAUC, pour son travail au soutien du congrès de cette année et pour m’avoir aidé à rester sur la bonne voie pendant mon mandat au CA de l’AAUC, d’abord comme trésorier, puis comme président. Les compétences financières de Fran — un modèle d’efficacité et de clarté, je le dis sou- vent — expliquent en grande partie le succès durable de l’Association. Je me sens privilégié d’avoir été au service de ma communauté professionnelle de cette manière et j’ai hâte de participer de façons différentes au cours des années à venir, en commençant par le congrès de Vancouver en 2020.

    The Gameful Museum: Developing a Location-Based Game Design Framework for Engagement and Motivation Sofia Romualdo de Carvalho Doctor of Philosophy in English January 2019 1 The Gameful Museum: Developing a Location-Based Game Design Framework for Engagement and Motivation Submitted by Sofia Romualdo de Carvalho to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English In January 2019 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that any material that has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University has been acknowledged. (Signature) ……………………………………………………………………………… 2 Abstract The popularity of location-based games, which blend digital and physical gameplay in specific real-world locations, has been rising in recent years. Research in museum studies looking into these games as engagement tools has so far been limited to individual case studies or sporadic overviews of play and games that do not explore the relationship between game design, location, gameplay and the museum experience. This practice-led thesis addresses this gap through the development of a game design framework and guidelines to create location-based games in museums, combined with a study of the impact of the designed experiences on audiences’ motivation to visit and engage with museum content. The findings and framework proposed are relevant for museum professionals and game designers who are interested in developing this practice while benefiting from guidance grounded in real-world research.
