Notes:
*These are all approximations, but are very close!
1. Eyes are half-way down on the face.
2. Face is broken into 3rds. Top 3rd = Top of skull to brow ridge, Middle 3rd = brow ridge to bottom of nose, Bottom 3rd = bottom of nose to chin.
3. 1 Eye Width is between the eyes.
4. Inside corner of eyes line up with outside edge of nostrils.
5. Middle of eyes line up with corners of mouth.

Attendance Question:
Although she was never a wife or mother herself, Mary Cassatt's favorite theme was motherhood. Her friend Edgar Degas felt sure this would make her famous, since few other artists had portrayed maternal subjects, except in religious paintings.
If you could explore only one subject in your artwork, what would that subject be? Why?

Attendance Question:
Vincent Van Gogh's talent was not recognized in his lifetime. His intense colors and swirling brush strokes did not appeal to popular taste. Desperately poor, Van Gogh tried unsuccessfully to sell his paintings. In 1987, nearly 100 years after his death, his Sunflowers sold for a record---almost 40 million dollars.
Have you ever done or made something that wasn't appreciated until later? What was it?
