Last Day of the Quarter and #School’sCancelled for the Day.

With a phone call from Mr. Foster this morning at 6:00 – we all learned that SCHOOL’S OUT for the day. Well… There is still work to be done.

  • Locker clean out will happen after hours on exam day.
  • Extra Credit in character will be available for everyone who wants to help out in the afternoons of exam day.
  • Paintings that need completing – after exams if you need it – otherwise CALL ME and we will figure something out. 
  • Would I rather be in school – you bet. Are you happy we do not have school – I am sure you are.
  • Contact me if there is anything you need from me about your artwork.

Thanks – 

Mr. Korb

Looking for a smidge of EXTRA CREDIT in your CHARACTER grade?

#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

Studio Art 360: CLAY and Cups and Figures and Animals

What challenges did you have in getting started last week on Friday with the clay? REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS ARTWORK: Subtractive, Additive, and Manipulation to the clay. These techniques are REQUIRED in the FINAL Sculpture.

#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.

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?

#Sketchbook #Tuesday and #DRAW!

#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.
