Explain your theme, the ideas behind it, and how you came about it. What were your influences in choosing this theme? How does this theme relate to you personally?

First off, Hi. I'm currently about a third of the way through my IB, and I haven't even finished one single final piece. I'm also in a bit of a rut because I decided it would be wise to redo the majority of my workbook. I was wondering, what size book does everyone use? My teacher gave us A3, but I hated working in that, and I then found out that we can work in A4. Would you recommend it?

I'm at a new high school in Japan and we are getting ready for IB. I'm sure I will have questions along the way and just need ways to communicate with others in the field.

| Line11 | When is a series counted as one artwork? | 3 | Nov 4 2011, 9:03 AM EDT by mrs_anderson | ||||

I am a Higher Level student, my exhibition is 19 days away, and I am slightly stressed.
I have many artworks that are similar to each other (either in terms of the artistic techniques used or the expressed ideas). Such artworks are to be exhibited as series. My teachers also say that each series (I have 5 of them) is going to be counted in my portfolio as one artwork. So instead of 12 'artworks', I am going to have only 5. But... every individual piece was time-consuming! I put too much work into them, and counting them as series also makes me lack 3 artworks because I need 18. I wonder if there are any rules or guidelines as to when a series is counted as a series and when is it counted as a set of individual works? By the way, my name is Alisa.

I have absolutely no artistic skill. I can't draw, I can't paint, I can't sketch, I can't sculpt, I can't do anything and I'm absolutely exasperated because I don't know what to do! Help!

So my teacher, says I am not allowed to keep ANY of my pieces because they are "intellectual property of IB"
Could someone that really knows clarify this?After working so hard on all my composition I can keep anything??? Does this just apply to my school? This idea makes me really angry and honestly I feel this is a rule my teacher solely came up with.

Hi, I am new at teaching DP visual arts and I need some clarification.
1) What is correct, Investigative workbook (IWB) or investigation workbook (IW)? I have seen both around... 2) how many assessment criteria are there for IW/IWBs, (whatever is correct) : I have seen two different documents, one with 5 descriptors and one with 8. What are they? Thank you very much.

I wanted to start an IB certificate program at my school. But the administration also wants to add the regular IB students. How do you get them ready in one year when they have no art experience?

Hi,
I am getting conflicting information. My examiner says we cannot communicate at all. However, at a meeting with other IB art teachers and an ofcicial from the IBO, it was clearly explained that examiners and the teachers are allowed to discuss curriculum and questions the teacher might have about the exam process- as long as there is not discussion of actual kids or specific student work. Where can I find that listed on the IBO site? I am really in need of some feedback from my examiner but do not want to blunder into any IBO rules. Thank you

Just a quick question about the IB exhibitions and framing art work. Do schools usually pay for framing students work ready for the show or is that solely the responsibity of the student?

Hi everyone, I'm new to teaching IB Visual Art and so am delighted to find this site. Some excellent resources and a great place to start for a novice. At this point I just need a little help and clarification. I have been sent a list of 5 of my HL students who I now need to send a sample to be moderated. My question is what do I send ? the CRB? a copy of it ? So they want to see the IWB pages and studio photo's? Thank you so much in advance for any advice.

I'm an art student in my first year of the IB program, and I'm having some problems with my focus. Its not that I can't think of projects to work on. Its not that I'm lacking in technical skills, because I've had years of experience. Its more that I can't find my focus. I have had some ideas, but my teacher says that they lack depth and that it seems like I've already thought them trough to their extremities. He says that there isn't much for me to explore in them . However it seems that these are the things I'm interested in.
For reference my current idea for a focus is Character development in stressful situations, and I'm planning to do most of my work in a digital comic style format.

YET I have been very annoyed with her specific requests! she wants MOST (3 out of 4) pages to have research and says it is not considered to be a "proper" investigation workbook page according to IB criteria without it. TRUE OR FALSE? PLEASE HELP! and also answer my last question! THANK YOU IN ADVANCE guys! and mrs anderson

Hi. so I'm having trouble finding ideas for my IWB! You guys would be of great help if you could give me names of good artists I could critique. I am interested in abstract, and just modern art.... like of modern ideas, scenery...etc! Also, I would appreciate it if you guys just give me come ideas of what I should research on.. maybe something that you have researched in the past and have found interesting?
My teacher is always telling us to just research anything even if it doesnt really relate to the studio work you were/are working on? is that true? thanks in advance! I'm doing really bad with my IWB and any help would be MUCH APPRECIATED!

Hey I'm new, but I'm in the second year of my IB Studio Art Class. So far, it's not looking so well, haha. I'm from Shawnee Mission East, and I'm a senior. I was wondering just what should I do to better prepare for my testing. I'm not the greatest artist but I love doing it, especially comic art. I can post my artwork if anyone wants to see it and give me advice. Thanks.

I absolutely love this. The connection between the two models is electric. That combined with the projected light creates such unity. Very nice.
