Introduction

.welcome fellow cat napers and art followers!, 

As stated in the blog introduction at the top of the page, my purpose here is to create a web-portfolio for the creativity part of the CAS-class (Creativity, Action and Service) in the I.B. Diploma Program.

A small summary of the I.B CAS-class
The I.B CAS-class requires the students to complete several (and finally; all) of the Learning Outcomes listed below in different activities

Learning Outcomes:
  1. Increased awareness of my own strengths and areas of growth.
  2. Undertaken new challenges
  3. Planned and initiated activities
  4. Worked collaboratively with others 
  5. Shown perseverance and commitment in my activity
  6. Engaged with issues of global importance
  7. Considered the ethical implications of my actions
  8. Developed new skills

Anyways, I will be posting artwork here regularly for the next year and a half including approximately the hours spent and medium(s) used. All this because this artblog will serve as a log and evidence of my efforts, and at the end I will post which of the learning outcomes I have covered.

The CHALLENGE!
...is to complete 100 pieces with one of the 100 themes below!

Why am I doing this?
I decided to make this blog because my school unfortunately does not offer art as part of the curriculum, but this way I am able to draw and call it schoolwork. Also, making and maintaining a blog active is taking on a huge challenge in itself.

Feel free to leave a comments and critique as it would help develop my skills and techniques further :)

Here is the list of what I hope to complete within Spring 2012:
