I will try to line out an overview, some resources, and a daily work schedule (remember, you need to work 45 minutes per day, like you would if you were in class for real). But if you have ANY QUESTIONS, please contact me any of the ways listed above.Some tasks will be internet/cell phone based. I realize not everyone has access to those, so I will provide an alternate assignment that does not need either. Bellringers: I will still be reading out loud. I know, calm your excitement. I will do it as a FB live, so you can watch it anytime. I will read between noon and 1pm each day. If you cannot access the videos: Please take to writing a journal.

BWayne Thiebaud Information?:?: Thiebaud: BiographyBorn in Arizona in 1920, Wayne Thiebaud’s interest in art was inspired initially by cartoons and comicstrips such as George Herrman’s Krazy ?Kat. The teenage Thiebaud established himself as a cartoonist, working for a brief time?as an animator for the Walt Disney studios and drawing a regular comic strip during a World War II stint in the Air Force. He also worked as a poster designer and commercial artist inboth California and New York before deciding to become a painter. Thiebaud’s formal art training wasprovided under the GI Bill at?San José State College and the?California State College in Sacramento. Thiebaud received a teaching appointment at Sacramento?Junior College in 1951, while still in graduate school, and has since enjoyed a long and distinguished teaching career.In 1956, Thiebaud moved to New York, where he was in the midst of the Abstract Expressionist movement. He was particularly interested in work by Willem de Kooning and Franz Kline, but fashioned his own approach to art, adapting the?thick pigments used by the abstract expressionists to his ownsubjects and style. Having returned to California, by the?early 1960s Thiebaud’s best-known works,colloquial paintings of food and consumer goods, had emerged in mature form. Depictions of everyday items in American life—sandwiches, gumball machines, jukeboxes, toys, cafeteria-type foods, and cakesand pies—reflect a turn toward representational painting. These deadpan still life subjects are setagainst light backgrounds, often white, with the objects?rendered in lush, shiny oil paints. The thick, insistent textures and the playful colors Thiebaud uses for his commonplace objects and their enframing shadows challenge our perceptions of art subjects?and meaning. They are still life paintings, but with a difference. Although his works are often classified as part?of the American pop art movement, Thiebaud also painted portraits, but even these retained his signature broad treatment of light and shadow, thick paint, and bright Kool-Aid colors. In 1972, Thiebaud settled permanently in San Francisco and added paintings of the landscape and cityviews to his subject matter. Using the unique geography of the Bay Area for inspiration, Thiebaud’slandscapes are dramatic representations distinguished by forms plunging at breathtaking angles into oracross space and rendered in bold patterns?of color.Andy Warhol InformationCopied on another sheet. ................
