Monday morning - period #1 (Computer Art).
Students working diligently on the Design Process - step #2 (Analysis and Research).
Oddly enough they seem to be enjoying this step (which was always my favorite). 
Keying on the aesthetic of Steampunk - what it is and what its not, what others have done, what are its characteristics - and using that as inspiration to begin generating ideas and sketches for their finished illustration.
