Hello Lola! Alexi Jawlensky: http://en.wahooart.com/Art.nsf/O/8YDE4Y/$File/Alexei-Jawlensky-Lola.JPG

Goals:

G: 1.1Ac: Individually or collaboratively formulate new creative problems based on student’s existing artwork.
This is it folks – last day – Every square inch needs pastel. What’s holding you back? What has propelled you forward in the process? Alex von Jawlensky:
- TOMORROW! We are going to 1) make photographs of the work we have RIGHT NOW and 2) go to the COMPUTER LAB (Laptops). Fill out the Google Form http://goo.gl/forms/3q3rPakz8m and then 3) insert images from today into the GOOGLE DOCUMENT.

Reflection: Are you taking pastels home? Where are you going to work on the drawing? What has been the HARDEST PART of the drawing?

Studio Art 360: COLOR and YOU!

Roy Lichtenstein – He actually USED other peoples cartoons to create his works that were, in some cases, about the Vietnam War – POP Art: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/b/b7/Roy_Lichtenstein_Whaam.jpg

7.1Ac: Recognize and describe personal aesthetic and empathetic responses to the natural world and constructed environments.
What do you think the CHALLENGES FOR YOU are going to be in how we DUPLICATE the image over to the canvas?

Reflection: As you worked on the GRID and the TRACINGS – What WERE the most challenging parts for you to create?

HERE’s where were headed with this! Andy Warhol at MoMA.

AP Studio Art: Senior Exhibition Time!

Houghton EDU – Not HIGH SCHOOL – but COOL SCHOOL – What’s OUR show going to be like? http://www.houghton.edu/am-site/media/ortlip-gallery-header-3.jpg

Goals:

2.1Ad: Experiment, plan, and make multiple works of art and design that explore a personally meaningful theme, idea, or concept.
Now that we are done with the AP Testing – time to move forward. Looking over the past year and the development of the works you created… what 2 skills did you develop and put into your Art Toolbox over the course of the year?

Reflection: What FOUR works have you chosen for the AP / SENIOR Exhibition? Have you been able to get your works mounted yet? What do you need to demonstrate to others to help them along in the process?

Advanced Drawing: Critique? Draw?

How can you use the idea of the PORTRAIT to work up a new idea that has political or social implications? I don’t know if Alice Neel is trying that here but… it’s great figurative work: http://www.aliceneel.com/images/gallery/alice-self-portrait.jpg

Goals:

1.2Ad: Choose from a range of materials and methods of traditional and contemporary artistic practices, following or breaking established conventions, to plan the making of multiple works of art and design based on a theme, idea, or concept.
What do you have to do to complete today? What did you accomplish YESTERDAY that makes you pleased with your work and effort?

Reflection: What did you accomplish today in your work? Please take the time to write out three things that you are pleased with OR that you are struggling with – these should be things that you can or could share with Mr. Korb or your classmates.
