Last Day of #CRIT and the #TURKEYDay Break!

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

Studio art 360: Sketchbook Tuesday

2.1P: Engage in making a work of art or design without having a preconceived plan. A: What do you feel is the value of practicing in a sketchbook? How can you see this as being a place that others (engineers, designers, architects, artists) might need as a valuable tool?

Please grab hold of a piece of candy from the pile in the classroom. Open the candy and eat it. Keep the wrapper and STAPLE it into your sketchbook – folds and all. Look at how the 2 contemporary artists Stephen Shanabrook and Veronika Georgieva worked together. Fold, crease, wrinkle it a few times and overlap a bit of it. Use a VIEWFINDER (provided) trace out the empty space on a page in your sketchbook (you’ll be drawing in that space later). Choose a PORTION of the folded candy bar image and, using the VIEWFINDERS (look at the new compositions and simplify it), and draw it out to the best of your ability (HB – Hard Pencil to start, colored pencil to finish). The ideas are all up to you.

What is the ONE THREAD that your AP READER might see as they look at the 3 works you have (or are working on) that will tie things together

#Monday and we are entering a NEW STAGE of the game called #Art!

Some of you had some challenges this past quarter in your art classes – some of you soared. If sketches held you back – think about what your new plan of action needs to be. If you had no issues with the practice of sketches – then no worries – your practice is strong because you know that the art requires practice. A new beginning for all – and new seating charts – WEEKLY – YEP!


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.

Tuesday in the #Studio – Let’s keep moving #Forward with our #art.

#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


Drawing: Portraits and Photography and the German Expressionists (@MoMA)

Studio Art 360: Sketchbook TUESDAY is ON YOUR OWN – Here’s the rules…

ON YOUR OWN! FOR NEXT TUESDAY! CONSIDER A ROOM – A BUILDING – Something with a sense of DEPTH and 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.

10.1P: Document the process of developing ideas from early stages to fully elaborated ideas.

Look at your current still life drawing… Choose an element or principle and describe how you are using it in your still life. Also describe how it is being used successfully or not so much.

Seriously – What did you take away from the critique?

3 Weeks Left of 1st Quarter!

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

What did you take away from the critique?

#Friday! #Critiques are HERE! WooHoo!

#17 Drawing is About Mark Making “Every mark has a distinct character and quality.Every mark is a signature. Variations in pressure and weight is the visual equivalent of intonation. Marks, or lines, of consistent weight or thickness surrounding a figure or object will flatten the image. Tapering or breaking a line in a curve can connote a highlight or make the curve flow. Also, a tentative line will read as such. Give every mark or line authority and make sure it serves a purpose. Try to use only the marks you need.” 101 Things Learned in Art School, Kit White, 2011, MIT Press

#BlastFromThePast – #HomecomingWeek

“Advice about your paintings is difficult. As I said before, I cannot interest myself in whether they will pass juries or not. More paintings have been spoiled during the process of their making, through such considerations, than the judgements of juries are worth.” Robert Henri

#Welcome back to the #Studio – Almost a full week – #LateStart #Wednesday

Inspiration is for amateurs. The rest of us just show up and get to work. If you wait around for the clouds to part and a bolt of lightening to strike you in the brain, you are not going to make an awful lot of work. All the best ideas come out of the process; they come out of the work itself.” Chuck Close

http://youtu.be/milXH-433vs


What a great week we had last week. Artists are making themselves comfortable in the studio, figuring out who they are, what skills they have, where they might be struggling, What they like and dislike. This week is going to be a VERY SOLID week of work. Critiques, New Ideas, New Materials, New Challenges will be faced by all. Be ready to work and make a lot of strides in your work. – Korb

AP Studio Art: Critique and then your FINAL WORK!

4.2Ad: Critique, justify, and present choices in the process of analyzing, selecting, curating, and presenting artwork for a specific exhibit or event.

AND 1.2Ad: Choose from a range of materials and methods of traditional and contemporary artistic practices, following or breaking established conventions, to plan the making of multiple works of art and design based on a theme, idea, or concept.

Looking at the AP Rubric – Being as HONEST and (thinking about what # your work would score on the 1 – 6 scale) take the time to assess and evaluate your last 7 Deadly Art Sins Artwork. THEN – Using a Chromebook or Personal Device – Type up an artist statement that tells us a bit about the thoughts and response to the myth as the work relates. THEN… FINAL ARTWORK.
