Artist Challenge Extra Credit
The page is designed to challenge students to find out information about
specific artists. The goal is to find out at least 10 interesting facts about
the artist of the month that they can pick from. I am looking for personal
information like when and where they were born, what style of art did they
paint, or what materials they used. This is an extra credit option and is
not required by the student to complete. It can be used to help the student
try and achieve a better grade in art. I will only accept 2 artist
challenges a semester for extra credit.
Students must write the papers in their own hand writing. I will not accept papers that
have been typed.
