  10. Student Examples

  11. INSTRUCTIONS… • Fill out the planning sheet. This will require you to research a Surrealistic artwork and artist and write about them. Start thinking about what you could include in your surreal artwork. • ~ Brainstorm three ideas and do a thumbnail sketch for each on the planning sheet. You will turn this in with your project on the due date. Choose the best idea and begin working. • ~ Take some pictures, gather some magazine/newspaper clippings, or do some drawings that you could use in your artwork. Your work will be much more original and interesting if you do this.
