This word has lots of meanings, above is what dictionary.com listed for the definitions. I would like for us to look at the first definition in reference to our next project which has to do with the fourth definition.  This is where you get to use your own ideas and images from your own mind and heart to create something for the rest of us to see. I have given you a few instructions so that you have a starting place and don't get overwhelmed. At the highlighted portions of this entry are some links if you forget what we talked about in class. We will start on this next week HIS students and after Thanksgiving Immanuel students. 

I do want to talk about

preliminary design sheets

. This is an important step for you as a student because it helps you get what it is that is rolling around in your head onto paper and gives you a place to begin. Nothing is more frustrating than trying to do an assignment well and you get stuck because there is too much good stuff up in your brain. Sometimes it is hard to choose! Please come to class with your thoughts and ideas out of your brain and sketched and written on your preliminary design sheet. Don't worry you can change your mind once you get going but this gives you a place to start! I am so looking forward to what you come up with I know I will be dazzled by your incredible creativity and artistry!
