Still Life Drawings and Photographs and Thumbnails are all a part of this upcoming assignment. Value is going to be the most difficult – or is it going to be the observation and rendering of the images… Hmmmm…

Welcome to Ms. Ava Sandersen from UW-Milwaukee. She will be joining us as our student teacher at Forest Park Middle School for some time now. WELCOME! It is going to be GREAT to have you here.
One more week! Before I begin… HERE is a link to the new STANDARDS BASED RUBRICS that the 7th graders REBUILT. The original was fine and written lovely for a teacher – NOW the kids had a hand in it and the standards are things they can check off and see that they have met the baseline for the standards. I would LOVE to hear your feedback! I am SO PROUD of the kids. The 8th graders did the same for their rubrics… this is just one of the examples.

HERE is the assignment – I am still working on the standards – be patient and maybe give me your thoughts!

This week we are going to look at the RUBRIC and you are going to help REDEFINE what a 4, 3, 2, and 1 is (zero will be removed and we will get a newly crafted rubric before we assess this ourselves).
RUBRIC TIME – Let’s rebuild what is good and make it better!
What MOVEMENT are you working in? What is your landscape? We are going to be painting ACRYLIC on CANVAS… you are going to use the COLORS from the MOVEMENT and artist you have chosen.
We are ALL inspired by a work of art and artist from one of 4 movements in art history.
Impressionism
Post Impressionism
Fauvism
Contemporary
We are going to look at the standards in the Rubric and see it we can improve the student facing part of it all so it is easier for the kiddo to know about and understand.
We are working on watercolors and line portraits… this is my demonstration of the process for the rock star artists – who are doing some incredible color scheme work and watercolor technique paintings. Well done artists.

Did you MAKE the photograph?
AI an image that has a lot of your own PROMPTS (and you still have to paint and draw it)
With the end of the year less than 24 hours behind me, I look back on a year of learning and experiments, stresses and successes. I hope my fading memory remembers the successes more than the stressors.
The last days (and I wish I had made photographs of the works, included plein air drawings and paintings, fused glass magnets, and a day of exquisite corpses. That was a lot of fun (for those who could follow directions and draw for 4 minutes).
Biggest lesson I learned is a reminder from my mom. “Frank” she says, “remember to not be so uptight in the class. Nobody there is going to be as passionate or interested in the arts as you. They are teenagers (and preteens) and always have three things on their minds. Art isn’t one of them.” Now I can only guess what the pre-teens have on their minds… and I know that art isn’t one of them (all the time at least). I DO need to chill a bit.
Anyhow. Thanks for the year of follows. I don’t get a lot of feedback from the audience from these posts but I am always interested in your thoughts. How to be more chill? Relax? Ways to let them just be the energy filled children they are and not have it drive me to the verge of anger? I am up for your thoughts.
This is the first thing I am doing on my summer break (other than removing a bad microwave and making coffee, and struggling to change the head on a QUIP toothbrush). And this is going to be it for the summer (maybe some Waterford 7+ photos but… we aren’t there yet. That is my adults with differing abilities and mad passion for art group – names after the Group of Seven from Canada – Oh Canada…).
What have you learned? How will you think about the use of Photoshop and the digital world as you move forward? How did you make the TEXT easy to read?
