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

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?

#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

#Friday and you leave at #Noon! WooHoo for You! End of #1stQuarter in the #ArtStudio

#28: An idea is only as good as its execution. It is important that you master your medium. Poorly made work will either ruin a good idea or make the lamentable execution itself the subject. Overly finessed technique can mask a lack of content or can smother an image. At the same time, roughness and imprecision has its place in rendering. One can only gauge the need to throw technique away if one has first achieved the mastery of it. Kit White 101 Things I Learned in Art School

How easy or difficult was it for you to begin simplifying the space and shapes of your drawings? What challenges do see as you continue? Know that the use of color in the work will be used to create a MOOD / EMOTIONAL response to the space that you are representing with your abstraction.

Drawing: Kandinsky and YOU!

AP Studio Art: Concentration – AAARGHHH!

HUSE CHANGE OF PLANS… Ok, the ideas of the 200 images is a good idea. It really is. That said… we are going to chill out a bit on this… and when I say we… I mean me. 50 images. That’s it. A lot of you may already have had made a lot of images, and that is good. Some of you haven’t. Let’s start with 50 and see where we need to go from here.

What are your FEARS as you begin to come to the end of the first three works? What are your FEARS about the AP Process?

#28: An idea is only as good as its execution. It is important that you master your medium. Poorly made work will either ruin a good idea or make the lamentable execution itself the subject. Overly finessed technique can mask a lack of content or can smother an image. At the same time, roughness and imprecision has its place in rendering. One can only gauge the need to throw technique away if one has first achieved the mastery of it. Kit White 101 Things I Learned in Art School

IF YOU ARE MIISSING WORK! This is a GENTLE REMINDER to GET YOUR WORK COMPLETED by WEDNESDAY for a GRADE IN THE FIRST QUARTER! If it is not IN BY 3:00 Wednesday – it is a ZERO in the GRADEBOOK!
