Focus on shadows to draw next 4 hands.

The drawing exercise for this week was to focus on the shadows to draw our next four hands. For our sketchbook homework, draw the color wheel with primary, secondary and tertiary colors.

We discussed Virgen de Guadalupe images in the work of Ester Hernandez and Yolanda Lopez. We saw I Love Lupe video.

Next week, our guest artist is Los Angeles- based Chicana artist Ofelia Esparza. She is a 2018 National Endowment for the Arts National Heritage Fellow who worked as a cultural consultant on the film Coco.
