Bonus Sketchbook Assignments
- Be sure to bring your sketchbook to class every day, as you will need to use it for silent drawing exercises and class assignments. If you finish class work early, you may work on your sketchbook assignment for that week.
- Be sure to spend at least 30 minutes on each sketchbook assignment. Follow the instructions carefully – make sure to add colour when instructed to do so.
- Use one FULL page for each assignment. Do not draw on the back of these pages.
Assignment #1 - “Related Phrase” Worth 3%
Illustrate a phrase using drawings of objects that are related to its meaning.

Assignment #2 - “The Other Meaning” 3%

Use bright COLOUR! You can choose from the following list, or think of one on your own: apple of his eye, at the tip of my tongue, cat got your tongue, cold turkey, crocodile tears, in one ear and out the other, my lips are sealed, poker face, your eyes are bigger than your belly, two-faced.
