GOALS:

How has taking the time to reflect on the tasks of creating the collage and discussing the MEANING of the collage helped you to better understand the larger meaning and ideas behind your work?

Hale Woodruff and a Lithograph – Are you SIMPLIFYING your work? http://www.a-r-t.com/kelley/web/thumbnails/_06N1023.jpg

GOALS:

  1. Continue to create the COMMUNITY based artworks that describe your place and time in your community. A: Reflect for 3 minutes with your current work – WRITE OUT what is working and what is NOT working right now… TAKE 3 MINUTES.

What was the most successful aspect of the work today? What is holding you back? How can you realize the image you have in your head on the paper in front of you? If you are NOT PLANNED you are not going to have as a successful work that you could.

AP Studio Art: How are you a part of the COLLABORATION?

GOALS:

  1. Look at the qualities of art from the Renaissance and what was happening then (in the church because of your choice in painting) and analyze the current work of art in regard to similarities and differences in meaning. What was Michelangelo trying to say and what are you trying to say?

What’s the best thing about the work you are producing here? What is holding you back?

“Not all of our best students are our “A” students. I have had “C” students who I consider excellent  students because they were so engaged into the educational process. I really don’t think it has to do with a letter grade, it has to do with enthusiasm.” – Charles Rineheimer – NPR – Talk of the Nation Interview LINK HERE: The Students That Keep Teachers Inspired

What has inspired me? Hard Work – New Thinking, Hallways…

What was the most difficult or challenging aspect of this course for you personally? Were you able to learn from this experience or gain something from it that has helped you to develop as an artist?

  • Abstract Art and I just really had to think about it.
  • Thinking through things before beginning the piece of artwork.
  • The hardest thing for me would have to be taking time to slow down when making art.

“A dream only becomes overrated when not pursued by the dreamer.” ― Courtney Hickman

Art Foundations: Collage and build the ABSTRACT IMAGE based on your personal life and feelings…

Simplicity in the use of ELEMENTS of ART can make an abstraction – what are you doing? What are your textures?

GOALS:

  1. 1.3 communicate your thoughts on social topics clearly
  2. 4.3 compare relationships in visual art in terms of 4.3.3 your culture as it relates to your own art.

What have you learned about the creation of ABSTRACT ART? What have you learned about the important things in your life THROUGH the creation of your ABSTRACT ART PROCESS?

~~~

DRAWING: 1) Perspective and 2) Critiques… 6th hour is going to have to hustle ONE DAY tocatch up. PHOTOGRAPHS will HAVE TO BE a part of the process. THESE Photos are going to be UPLOADED to the FINAL CRITIQUE for the FINAL EXAM… make sure you are documenting the process.

EVOL, “DRESDEN 09”, 2010 Spray paint on cardboard, 61 x 76 cm —> High Resolution… How can you do this… GOUACHE, GESSO, PENCIL!

  1. 5.1 Identify the rationale behind making art.
  2. 1.4 Create, define, and solve visual challenges using 1.4.1 Analysis (how do you see the perspective in your drawing?)

Where did you struggle in remembering perspective? How can you use the skills of sighting in to refresh your memory and heighten your skills? THIS IS A FAST PROJECT that IS the basis of the FINAL EXAM. If you do not finish the drawing in the time allotted – you will have a hard time passing the final exam. HOW can you make this YOUR own special drawing? Your locker? Your favorite hallway / doorway / classroom?
