Write: After reading the online definition for the use of light in painting, viewing the City of Chicago Tourism Website, and looking at the suggested art examples, choose a city, town, mall, or airport that you would like to investigate. On your walk, you will need some means of documenting your discoveries such as a camera, sketchbook, and/or paperr for writingg thoughts. Your objective is to go beyond the familiar and realize details you have previously missed or likely would have overlooked such as the use of light, the situation of those around you, the ideals of the setting. Create interesting compositions through the camera lens and add at least one photo to your paperrr  Be sure to alternate walking with moments of paused reflection (sit on a bench for a few minutes). Take yourself outside of your normal perspective and see things as others might see them—for example, an ant, a bird, a displaced person, an excavator, a cop, or a peddler.
