Final Portfolio

You can start this today and complete it in the next few classes.

Please take a look at the blog and upload any work that you might have missed.

Make sure that all of the pictures have been DESATURATED - Converted to Black and White.

If you are sure that all of your assignments are up to date then begin work on your Final Portfolio.

Here are some good examples of past Final Portfolios:
