JES REYES - SPECTRUM ARTWORKS - 3 HOURS

My time at Spectrum this week was focused more on getting some parts of the Artworks studio more organized and continuing to work on honing my ideas for the lesson I’ll teach.  I began work on my teaching plan and am hoping to talk with Jes more this coming week as well as continue to talk with the artists there about what they hope to get out of a lesson with me.  I value their opinions a lot and want this to be a positive experience for them.  I’m thinking my lesson with revolve around found objects and incorporating them into art, maybe having a presentation about artists who have used found objects in their own practices.

CHRIS BOWMAN - MIA MUSEUM EDUCATION - 5 HOURS

I also began my other internship this weekend with Chris in Museum education.  It was just a day of observation while Chris taught a lesson, but I was able to get a lot of information from it.  I think it’s interesting to be working with two very different populations with my two internships, and still see how much alike they can be in terms of making art.  All that I can say right now is that I’m excited and can’t wait to see what happens continuing from here.
