Often I find my students presenting their initial ideas in too conservative a way. When I mention their ideas are not far enough reaching, they might say things like, “I didn’t think you would let me do that”.
I often need to remind them that THEY are the art students! They are expected to blow my mind, push the envelope, etc.
I am the instructor, it is my job to reel THEM in. Yet this can’t happen when an idea has not been cast WAY OUT there…
