DON'T turn in a photo like the one below. It's crooked. There are light glares. The image is a little blurry and somewhat hard to see. There is a lot of excess around the artwork.
The image below was edited in a photo editing application. If you set up the photograph well to begin with, you may be able to skip this step. Compare it to the photo above. Notice how much cleaner and clearer it is.
FYI: An alternative to taking a photograph is to scan your artwork, if your artwork is the same size of smaller than your scanning bed. The Design classroom 215 also has a larger format scanner that will scan sketchbook size (11 x 14") artwork.
