Welcome to another week of #Art

“The importance of an artist is to be determined by the number of new signs he introduces into the language of art.” —Henri Matisse, quoted in Matisse by Louis Aragon Art is a language of signs and symbols. To describe new conditions, new signs must be created or old symbols must be redeployed in ways that give them new meanings. Given that the world is constantly changing and that each new generation describes the world it sees in its own way, the symbol language of art must always be evolving. Language is influence. 101 Things to Learn in Art School Kit White © 2011 Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Kit White 

Stained Glass: Frames and Finishing up.

10.1Ac: Utilize inquiry methods of observation, research, and experimentation to explore unfamiliar subjects through art-making.

What are the STEPS in SOLDERING? Today we FRAME the finished works. Please remember the steps in soldering! Align things in the corner of the wooden frame and KEEP THEM THERE. Avoid a 1/4” around the edges. Review the process with your classmates.

What have you done successfully with this first artwork? Name three things that will help you move forward with the next artwork. Let’s sit for 2 minutes and PERSONALLY look at the work. STICKYNOTE!

BY THE WAY: everything-stained-glass.com is a good site for your own personal research.

CIaD: It’s a JOB! Kringle tomorrow and then Illustrations of Music or Modernism.

5.1Ac: Evaluate, select, and apply methods or processes appropriate to display artwork in a specific place.

Today is a work day with two tasks at hand – 1) Insert Symbol and Change Text on the Sign and 2) Invert your LOGO for tomorrow’s Printing. Think about the success of your symbold right now – the precision of it. What is one thing that makes it work? REVISIONS for the LOGO DESIGN are DUE on WEDNESDAY at the end of class. Coming up MID-WEEK next week: If you have NOT done the RESEARCH and obtained your own SELFIES / Photographs you have work to do!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THE REVISIONS? Logo design? These Signs? Modifications?

Drawing: Faces

1.1Ac: Individually or collaboratively formulate new creative problems based on student’s existing artwork.

What is it about the EYES that makes it EASIEST or most DIFFICULT to draw?

The EYE: http://img02.deviantart.net/2631/i/2012/037/f/b/trapped_soul_by_giralikesyou-d4owvmw.jpg

What mistakes did YOU make – how bad were they when it came to eyes?

AP Studio Art: Critique and Upload (Due Friday)

 

7.1Ad: Analyze how responses to art develop over time based on knowledge of and experience with art and life.

How are you struggling with fresh and unique ideas as you progress forward? What is it about FINDING YOUR VOICE?

Looking at your concentration from a distance, what are you able to do to move things forward? This is an important part of the process as you move forward.

Adv. Drawing: New Drawing Research on Georgia O’Keefe

 

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.

How has Georgia O’Keefe created the idea of SPACE in this artwork? Let’s read about O’Keefe a bit…

#Wednesday and you are Making #Art – We Hope

Of the works, skills, information you wrote about earlier in the week (above) write out a timeline for the next 5 days that will allow you to really work out the changes, skills, mastery so that you can (by mid-week next week) turn in the changes for a stronger demonstration of the learned skills. (All late and missing work will be DUE on the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL NEXT WEEK.)

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

Studio Art 360: Still Life = Quiet and Focused Drawing

Look back at Monday’s drawings and the beginning of the process, what are some of the challenges that you are facing when it comes to drawing from observation?

#Tuesday is #ArtDay

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

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?

One work a day – Never the same work two days in  row. ALVERNO NOTES – Talk about the ideas of how works are developed E and E…

#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?

Studio Art 360 – CRITIQUE the PAPER MACHE Forms. Pencil Drawing of these FORMS!
