#Thursday is here and we are #MakingArt

Art is an adventure into the unknown world, which can be explored only by those willing to take risks.”

– Mark Rothko

Drawing: MID-CRIT on Kandinsky

7.2Ac: Evaluate the effectiveness of an image or images to influence ideas, feelings, and behaviors of specific audiences.

As this develops, how are your ideas and Kandinsky’s similar and how are they different? What might you take away from this experience? How can you share that idea with the world?

As this work develops, how are your ideas and Kandinsky’s similar and how are they different? WRITE this out from the beginning of the hour. Has it Changed?

AP Studio Art: DEMO of MOUNTING

Reflect: Learning to think and talk with others about an aspect of one’s work or working process, and learning to judge one’s own work and working process and the work of others.

We are going to take a BREAK from the conversation and demonstrate the mounting of work. What pieces will you choose to mount? Why? What are your 5 BEST most SUCCESSFUL works?

What CHALLENGES do you see in the process of mounting your works to the boards? How long will each work take? Time to focus and WORK at it! YOU lead the crits tomorrow to wrap them up.
