#Friday is Here and it’s #ArtMaking Time

#13 Each generation gets to reinvent art in its own image. Because art is an act of description, it is inevitable that what it describes will reflect every generation’s bias of the moment. It is not a strict reflection of a time but an interpretation rendered in a language that is always in a state of transformation. Kit White 101 Things I Learned in Art School

As we are now halfway through the semester, please reflect on the skills, techniques, or tools in your art toolbox that you did not necessarily come into this studio art course with but have since developed anew, or at the least gotten a better grasp or understanding of. Please take a few minutes and write out your new skills and where you remember developing them as the quarter progressed. (Projects, discussions, feedback, reflections… be specific and write complete sentences.) Use the space to the right for more room

Studio Art 360: CLAY and Cups and Figures and Animals

 What do you currently know about using CLAY?  N: DEMO on the use of a slab of clay and the ADDITIVE and SUBTRACTIVE methods.

Here are the ideas for Final Product in the next assignment – you will have to use the same technique but with multiple solutions to the challenges – BRIGHT COLORS and GLAZES – Multiple Ideas – Clay Cup / Mug (Pinch Pot, Coils?) Animal Sculpture (look at historical ideas – REALLY OLD sculpture – stuff), Post Modern – Neo-Pop Keith Haring and other 3D Works – Bright Colors etc..

Here’s More from MY TRIPS to Milwaukee.

PAINTING: Watercolor CRITIQUE

How have you looked at the hallways DIFFERNETLY now that you are drawing them for inspiration versus just walking down them as you go from class to class? Tell me a few (3) things that you are noticing differently.

Wednesday and let’s wrap some stuff up!

#13 Each generation gets to reinvent art in its own image. Because art is an act of description, it is inevitable that what it describes will reflect every generation’s bias of the moment. It is not a strict reflection of a time but an interpretation rendered in a language that is always in a state of transformation. Kit White 101 Things I Learned in Art School

Studio Art 360: A bit of still life and a bit of reflection.

Space: Using all of the knowledge you have gained from the first batch of sketches, create a drawing that emphasizes the idea of space, depth, form, perhaps perspective. Consider your understanding of Line, Shape, Form, Texture, and Color to complete this assignment.

Take a LONG HARD LOOK at your composition. What is happening with the FIGURE? The GROUND? The POSITIVE SPACE? The NEGATIVE SPACE? TOMORROW is the last day… Critique, Mount, and Hand Them In happens tomorrow – last 15 – 20 minutes is NOT DRAWING TIME. Keep that in Mind as we move through today.

The Objects in Morandi’s Studio! http://labrouge.files.wordpress.com/2014/01/due-inglesi-al-mambo-studio-of-giorgio-morandi-bologna-labrouge.jpg

How have you worked today on the ideas of the positive and negative space? What are you doing to RESOLVE the image for tomorrow? 

PAINTING: Watercolor CRITIQUE

As an individual, what do you think you are going to struggle with the most in today’s (and tomorrow – and maybe Wednesday’s) Critique.

 

What do you struggle with when drawing hallways, perspective FROM REAL LIFE? think about the rules of perspective that you may have learned in Art Foundations class… SHARE WHAT YOU REMEMBER ABOUT THE RULES?

rall_hallway_red
Hallway drawing and a CAREER! https://halo.bungie.net/images/News/InlineImages2007/Special%20Features/HeroicMapsGuide/rall_hallway_red.jpg

What challenges did you have with the hallways? What perspective challenged you more that others?

Drawing: Kandinsky and YOU!

What ONE bit of theory has stuck with you as we have talked about the works and ideas of Wassily Kandinsky? Can you use any of his ideas on color and shape in your work as it is developed?

Painting with Green Center
Vasily Kandinsky French, born Russia, 1866–1944 Painting with Green Center, 1913

What NEW ideas do you have about COLOR and Shape in the art you are creating now that we have had some conversation and learning about the ideas of Wassily Kandinsky? 

 

AP Studio Art: Rubrics – 3 of them…

What is the biggest (or two) Element / Principle you might be using in your work this week? Explain in SPECIFICS – Use your individual pieces to explain

PAGE 16 in HANDBOOK

As we end the quarter – please look at the skills and ideas you have developed (or may have already had) over these 8 weeks. Pretty impressive? I think so. One of the most common requests I get is to “let us do our OWN thing.” Well… talk about that with your neighbors – What is ONE ARTWORK that you would like to pursue – Anything you want – the sky’s the limit!

#Friday is here. Know that I Miss You All #Dearly. Now go make #Art.

Art is the product of process. “Whether conceptual, experimental, emotional, or formal, the process you develop yields the image you produce. The materials you choose, the methods of production, and the sources of the images should all reflect the interests that command your attention. The process does not stop with each work completed. It is ongoing. The cumulative result of that process is a body of work.” Kit White 101 Things I Learned in Art School

HEY ! Take a look at ALL of the images today. Read each section of the site that is pertinent to your class and then GET TO WORK!

This is what art teachers look like at lunch. Jen Dahl, Cassie Stephens, me (Frank Korb), and Nic Hahn.

PAINTING: Watercolor Last Day

Knowing we are critiquing on MONDAY – I will NOT assign a WRITTEN critique for this painting… What do you need to be REALLY focused on TODAY to WRAP THIS PAINTING UP? How is this collage / painting using traditional and contemporary ideas in the 1) Composition and 2) Techniques?

Today is the last day for your painting. If you are done, step back… what can you do to ELEVATE the image? New marks? Lines? Shapes? What else can you do?

DRAWING: Kandinsky and Color Theory

Kandinsky is really hard. How are you working with the ideas about how he used color and shape? We’ll talk more about it Monday. Use the colored pencils or watercolors (I think I forgot to set the colored pencils out. Cabinets under the side counter by our kitchen table.) Keep working out your response and keep working through the colors and ideas on the brainstorming sheets I’ve given you. This is all on you.

What ONE bit of theory has stuck with you as we have talked about the works and ideas of Wassily Kandinsky? Can you use any of his ideas on color and shape in your work as it is developed?

Studio Art 360: Sketchbook Assignment and EXAMPLES

FIVE weeks into sketchbooks – what are you accomplishing with the TOOLS of drawing that you have struggled on in the previous sketches – or what are you doing better in this week’s class work that you can put into your sketchbook assignment?

Liubov Popova: http://images.tate.org.uk/sites/default/files/images/painterly.jpg at the Tate Modern:http://www.tate.org.uk/context-comment/articles/short-life-equal-woman
Gary Petersen: http://www.bkmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/LES4.jpg on You Tube – Flipped Opportintuy on YouTube: https://youtu.be/CKbMCfV8MFU

Tell me about your thoughts regarding ABSTRACTIONS and UNITY as we looked at this?

Extra Credit – Watch this video and write up a one paragraph (12 sentence) statement about your response, reaction, interest, curiosity about Gary Petersen’s Artwork. Speak specifically about some of his works -mention it BY NAME and the TIME in the video I can find it. List the Why’s and Becauses regarding why you respond to it the way you do. A well written statement will be worth a week’s sketchbook as A’s – one extra set of A’s in your grades for taking the time to Understand (Arts) Community: Learning to interact as an artist with other artists (i.e., in classrooms, in local arts organizations, and across the art field) and within the broader society. Arts is in parenthesis here as it can easily be switched with other disciplines, like science or history.

Painting: Personal Reflection and Meaning – and PAINT!

How do you feel that working with WATERCOLORS might take you to the next medium of Acrylic? Based on PAST EXPERIENCES… what similarities do you see being part of the process?

#Artmaking in the #ArtStudio – Coming up on the End of the Quarter – #WHAT?

Art is the product of process. “Whether conceptual, experimental, emotional, or formal, the process you develop yields the image you produce. The materials you choose, the methods of production, and the sources of the images should all reflect the interests that command your attention. The process does not stop with each work completed. It is ongoing. The cumulative result of that process is a body of work.”– Kit White 101 Things I Learned in Art School

We are coming upon the end of the quarter and grades will be finalized soon. Take a moment and look back on your rubrics, sketchbook assignments and thoughts about the artworks to see if there are things you’d like to revisit and demonstrate a greater MASTERY LEVEL. Please list and explain 3 aspects of your works that you would like to redo or fix to demonstrate that learning.

Studio Art 360: Still Life Drawing

Look back at your THUMBNAIL drawings… Which type of composition do you feel you are going to use? What are TWO things that have changed about your composition from the THUMBNAIL STAGE.

Looking at the THUMBNAIL again and the DRAWING – What positive changes or negative changes have come from the process of drawing?

Painting: Watercolor PAINT!

Looking over the work you have, what surprises do you see from where you started? Stronger than you expected? Weaker? EXPLAIN! I will be asking you about Georgia O’Keefe’s work on Friday – anything stand out today? Keep an eye on her work as the week progresses.

What ELEMENT of art do you find being the strongest one that you are using? Color? Line? Shape? Form? Space? 

Drawing: Crit and Kandinsky

Looking at the still life in front of you, what is the one aspect of it that you are most pleased with? Why are you so pleased with how you handled the materials and composition?

What can you say about your work? http://www.artic.edu/sites/default/files/styles/slideshow_scale/public/cal_TP_crit_360.png?itok=AhqbYJZS

What was it that you took away from today’s critique? How did you contribute to the success of the conversation?

AP Studio Art: Crit and Concentration

Time to CRITIQUE your “Work of Art” images. How are using the ideas of the rubric to push yourself – develop your ideas – Improve your work.

#Friday for YOU! #Studio Time at its BEST. Go Make Art!

#2 Learn to draw.

Drawing is more than a tool for rendering and capturing likenesses. It is a language, with its own syntax, grammar, and urgency. Learning to draw is about learning to see. In this way, it is a metaphor for all art activity. Whatever its form, drawing transforms perception and thought into image and teaches us how to think with our eyes.
