New Online Art Class - Vote Now

We are starting another online class (more of a study group really) on Artistic Waves.

Here's how it works: the participants vote on the topic and medium they want to work on and based on the topic selected, we plan out discussions and assignments for the next 6 weeks. This will be a free class - everyone gets to participate and help each other learn.

If you are interested, you can vote for your preferred topic or medium (or both) below. If you can't view the wave below, please use http://goo.gl/Hezx.

The "classes" will be held on Google Wave, and you can learn more about Google Wave or view a cheatsheet for using Google Wave.
