Writing Exercise #1: Tell Ten Lies and Three Truths

Hello All,
Please click the comments link below and post Ten Lies and Three Truths about the art work you have been creating and your modus operendi. The objective here is to carefully craft these lies. Remember, as we discussed in class, to simply say "I never use red." is a really thin and poorly constructed lie. Sample fabrications can be found here.
All students should post the Lies and Truths assignment as well as comments on the first group of readings by Midnight on Wednesday, 9/1. (To be clear, reading comments go under the "Vincent Price Video"...Lies go here)

The following students will be prepared to present current images of work and 23 copies of your Lies and Truths this Friday, 9/3/10. Presentations will be followed by a discussion of the written and visual material presented.

9/3, Week 2 - Group 1:
1. Brianna Barton
2. Shawnda Beattie
3. Lauren Bergrud
4. Brittany Brennan
5. Mary Carnes
