#WAEA 2016 Retreat – Mineral Point, WI

20160429_192008
Is this a sign of things to come for me this weekend? I hope not!

Welcome to the 2016 WAEA Planning Retreat! Part of my responsibilities, and pleasure, is to help plan how the WAEA moves forward. Well, after a long and difficult week – not anything any of my students were part of – they are part of the reason I got through the week (well… there was that one moment…) it is good to be here in Mineral Point.

Interested in the WAEA? Visit our website HERE. Today we are having some planning to do. What is the WAEA is all about? I am glad you asked…

WAEA Mission Statement 
The mission of the Wisconsin Art Education Association is to promote excellence in visual art and design education for all students by: 

  •  Providing professional growth opportunities for visual art and design teachers.
  • Showcasing student talents and abilities supporting art and design as academic core disciplines.
  • Communicating with other art and design organizations.
  • Offering lifelong learning opportunities acting on vital art and design education issues.

How are we going to continue to do all of this? Another solid question.

WAEA Vision Statement
In the decade ahead, we envision:

  • An organization that lives out the values expressed in our Mission Statement, seeking and valuing contributions from each member most art educators in the state of Wisconsin will be WAEA members.
  • Members for whom the art of teaching is the first priority.
  • An organization which is diverse culturally, ethnically and economically.
  • Programs aimed at developing the whole person and promoting creative, intellectual and emotional growth.
  • New partnerships with arts organizations, institutions and businesses.
  • Fiscal resources which keep the organization financially strong.
  • WAEA will sponsor travel and trips in the United States and abroad.
  • The Visual Arts Classic will become a national model.

Lots of photographs of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin will be made and posted here. It is my honor and pleasure to be here to serve the young artists across not only SE WI, WI as a whole, but also all the young artists who have found something in them that they need to express through a visual means – country and worldwide.

Goals:

  • 1.1Ac: Individually or collaboratively formulate new creative problems based on student’s existing artwork.
  • REVIEW the beginning stages of your portrait. What is standing out as successful? What is standing out as needing resolving COMPOSITIONALLY? Now is the time to FIX the issues.

Reflection:  What do you need to look at tomorrow and think about – fix, change, clean up? WRITE THAT DOWN and make sure you deal with that first thing tomorrow!

Goals:

  • 2.2Ad: Demonstrate understanding of the importance of balancing freedom and responsibility in the use of images, materials, tools, and equipment in the creation and circulation of creative work.
  • What are you thinking about in the work you are going to begin? Materials? Poses? Ideas about the work? Mug Shot? Action Shot? Portrait? Figurative Work? I am leaving this up to you! I WANT you to work on the idea of a portrait though…

Reflection: What have been your first marks – ideas you are making in the idea of the portrait?

DRAW! Figure! http://www.toa.edu.my/aboutus/gfx/facilities/life_b.jpg

Goals:

  • 2.1Ad: Experiment, plan, and make multiple works of art and design that explore a personally meaningful theme, idea, or concept.
  • What is it about the figure that you are still uncertain about? The Drawings are ALL ABOUT LOOKING and I expect you to be working and FOCUSED 100% of the time.  

Reflection:  What aspect of the drawing do you find successful? Why?
