#MidWeek #Wednesday already? Sheesh…

52 Every color has an opposite, called a complement. Complementary colors sit opposite one another in the color wheel. Additionally, all colors are affected by the presence of other colors. Even the smallest presence of a complement will enhance the intensity of a color when it is present in the same visual field. The presence of red, for instance, will cause the retina to “seek” green in the other colors present, hereby enhancing all parts of the green spectrum. If you wish to intensify a color in a composition, place some of its complement nearby. This applies to all media. The effective use of color is one of the greatest tools at an artist’s disposal. – Kit White 101 Things to Learn in Art School

What 3 challenges do you see in the process of mixing colors? 

BTW…

frank,
the results r great !! i am actually very impressed that you went beyond –
to make a drawings of the crumble pieces. it is a perfect move –
to show kids the possibilities and open the wide range of vision.
just perfect move!) and next one – as you said seems perfect too –
to the large scale paintings from it. plus it does bring the idea of pop –
using common objects reminding of course of warhol as well as rosenquist paintings
v
ps. next time in WI – coffee would be great)

PAINTING: Oil Painting Coming Up Soon… Let’s build a canvas!

What is one question you have about the process of building a canvas? Ask around and see if your classmates can help you resolve those questions before you begin to build.

What can YOU draw well when it comes to the portrait? Practice in your sketchbook! https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/9f/fb/ca/9ffbcae8de3b925577329c6197a6b51b.jpg

Practicing the FACIAL FEATURES is a lot of work. Looking at the few facial features / shapes / forms you have drawn today… what is the #1 Challenge (and WHY) you faced – no pun intended.

Using CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS as your impetus… you will need to RESEARCH a GALLERY ARTIST that is CONTEMPORARY and base your pose on their composition. This might be homework, but it’ll be woth it! http://artviaanderson.weebly.com/theory-and-practice/self-portraits-then-and-now

STUDIO ART 360: Sketchbook (and Color Scheme)

What STRUGGLES do you have with OBSERVATION? How about VALUE? Did you come to class with your SELFIE MADE and PRINTED? Take your selfie – your entire head needs to be in the photograph and cut out the head, glue it to the sketchbook page, and then give it to a friend. Using the photograph that has been glued down – resolve the rest of the picture with a friend. Let them begin the background and encourage them to DISREGARD to what was in the original background. HAVE FUN with this.

51: Learn the basic principles of color. There are three primary colors: red, blue, and yellow. They are the building blocks of all other colors. The secondary colors are violet (blue and red), green (blue and yellow), and orange (red and yellow). They are composed by the equal mixture of two primaries. All other colors are referred to as tertiary, because they are mixtures of a primary and a secondary color. Kit White 101 Things to Learn in Art School

#69 Color is not Neutral It has an emotional component. Certain colors have specific associations and induce certain responses. Learn what they are. When you use color, try to determine and understand the accompanying emotional response and how to use it effectively. Color has a visceral impact. – Kit White 101 Things I Learned in Art School

Let’s price out some modern art for your curiosity… https://m.artsy.net/auction/sothebys-contemporary-art-day-auction?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=p-social&utm_campaign=sm-sothebys-contemp-day-sale&utm_content=fb-sothebys-contemp-day-text

Studio Art 360: Sketchbook Tuesday (on Monday)!

What STRUGGLES do you have with OBSERVATION? How about VALUE?

SPECIAL THANKS to (Grandma) Vicki Kapellusch for coming into the Studio Art 360 studio and sharing her stories and sculptures with the young artists. It was a great opportunity to see someone else’s works and words for a change. Take a look through the slide show: HERE

Viski Kapellusch’s work.

Ok… For TUESDAY! Grab a hammer, screwdriver, wrench, some sort of toolbox type of tool and draw it based on careful observation. Make sure that you spend some quality time looking at the object and then also consider the space in the background. What are you doing to fill that space?

How are you considering the ideas about COMPOSITION as you create your artwork? How does the imagery we saw from Jim Dine give you permission to do NEW things and NEW ideas for your composition?

PAINTING: Hallways and Abstraction

What do you feel about the hall space that you have recreated in abstract form? Does this painting / has this painting affected the way you look at the space?  N: Painting – but that is now new.

What NEW discovery did you make today about your painting? Did you learn anything about the process of painting? Creating Art?

NOTE! There is a lot of information out there on the world of CONTEMPORARY ART and it is up to you – the ARTIST – to look out there and LEARN on YOUR OWN!

Drawing: Kandinsky- Let’s GO!

Take your work out – DON’T look at it. Hang it up, step back – WRITE OUT THE FIRST THINGS THAT COME TO MIND. 3 things!

How does this work relate to 1) Kandinsky and his movements? 2) Your song? We are going to be WRITING an ARTIST STATEMENT and PHOTOGRAPHING this work this week and working on it in the computer lab. Be prepared to provide writing that is DONE! ALSO – FIND YOUR SONG ON YOUTUBE! Tomorrow we begin with a final critique reflection – then onto the ORAL CRITIQUE – BE READY TO TALK!

AP Studio Art: Concentration 

What are two things (specifically) that you have accomplished during your past week as you’ve worked on your CONCENTRATION? Write out the IDEA behind your work and then SHARE the story with your classmate.

How are you working? How is Robert Rauschenberg Working? http://www.theartstory.org/images20/photo/rauschenberg_4.jpg

With ALL that is going on these past two weeks – and little input from me… what have you accomplished VISUALLY and / or TECHNOLOGICALLY?

What is the CENTRAL IDEA behind your concentration? Remember that you need to have a common thread / common theme / CENTRAL IDEA that ties your works together.

#Friday in #Studio means #MAKE ART! But casually – #bluejeans and #TShirts

 Art has no boundaries except those imposed by the needs of the maker. Boundaries are a form of definition, nothing more. They are a way to create a hierarchy of concerns, interests and priorities. Boundaries change all the time. That is part of what art does. By defining an area of interest or by stating a new priority, art allows us to create new definitions of ourselves and the context in which we operate. To blur a boundary is to confuse the definition. To move a boundary is to make a new definition. Kit White 101 Things I Learned in Art School

How does your art compare with the work of “professionals” and how can you work to create a better understanding of your approach / intent / ideas?)

What was helpful about 1) seeing your work from a distance and 2) hearing what others thought about the work you created? – 2 minute thoughts aout what you are doing… You HAVE TO MAKE ART to MAKE ART!

What is something that you took away from the 2 minute critique today – whether it be about YOUR work or about another person’s work.

 

Beginning on the FIRST set of 3 works… What is the CENTRAL IDEA behind your concentration? Remember that you need to have a common thread / common theme / CENTRAL IDEA that ties your works together. Work on THIS with me – let’s explore our ideas!
