Frank Ghery and his architectural wonderment – On the Simpsons.

GOALS:

  1. 1.4 create, and solve 2 Point Perspective Roof / sidewalks / windows and doors using 1.4.1 analysis (breaking up the subject matter to basic elements).

How important is it to remember the rules of thumb as you are drawing your cubes, doors, and windows? What challenges did you have in the process of the drawing?

~~~

Drawing: BEGIN THE DRAWING! What did you do to make your COMPOSITION interesting? Please make use of the WORKSHEET (page 17 and 18 of the Art Department Handbook).

How would you categorize this drawing’s composition? Yes, it is OPEN… but what else?

GOALS:

  1. (1.2) Create art that demonstrates an understanding of how your ideas relate to materials, techniques and process.

How have you begun the final drawing? What format of composition is YOUR final drawing? How have you used the ideas from the worksheet to make sure you are AWARE of the composition?

~~~

AP Studio Art: Work on the Breath and Concentration ideas and Art Works. Remember that you have NEXT week and then the work is DUE on the FOLLOWING Monday. How are you about the EDITING of your images. Remember that you need to, for your own records and good practice, make 2 versions of the final artwork. 300 dpi and 72 dpi – each one for a different reason.

How does YOUR artwork stand out in comparison to the artworks that are around you? What makes your newest piece (idea) stand out from the rest of your artworks?

GOALS:

  1. 3.5 evaluate and defend how 3.5.1 subject matter 3.5.2 symbols are used in art
  2. 4.4 evaluate and interpret your art in your time for relationships in 4.4.1 form 4.4.2 context (what might this mean as we look at ALL of the class work?)

Breadth Work – “Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome while trying to succeed.”

 

How difficult is it for you to continue moving forward with your next artwork? What challenges did you have yesterday with the editing process yesterday? How many images have you uploaded to the AP website? What PORTFOLIO are you going to present?
