line art in black and white and color

What I want you to know or do:


  • Illustrate the meaning of the art element line, by using a variety of lines
  • Use pattern in your composition
  • Use the entire space
  • Create a center of interest 


Questions:



  • What is a line?
  • How do you create emphasis in a work of art?




Here is an example of what the assignment might look like. You should create your own, original artwork. 

The assignment is to illustrate the meaning of the art element line by using a variety of lines. When you color in this assignment, you should also use warm (red, yellow, orange) and cool (blue, green, purple) colors to make some parts of the picture appear to come forward and make some parts appear to go back or recede in space.

Sketch your design lightly. Then we will add color or finish up in black and white, pen and ink.




For your color portion of this assignment, use 2 complementary colors. They are colors that are directly opposite one another on the color wheel. 

So, use...........

Yellow and violet
Red and green
or Blue and orange

You can mix the two colors together as well

Step 1: Pick 2 colored pencils

Step 2: On the back of your artwork, make 3 small color patches. One is the darker color. Press hard. The other is the lighter color. Press hard. The other is both colors mixed together. The other is the lighter color first (press hard), and the darker color over it (press lightly) .

2012 midterm exam review


Art 1
2012 midterm exam review



Artwork: A work of art, artwork, art piece, or art object is an aesthetic item or artistic creation. The term "a work of art" can apply to:
 an example of fine art, such as a painting or sculpture
 a fine work of architecture or landscape design
 a photograph, film or visual computer program
 a work of conceptual art or performance art
 a production of live performance, such as theater, ballet or opera
 an interactive game

Still life: A  work of art depicting mostly inanimate subject matter, typically commonplace objects which may be either natural (food, flowers, plants, rocks, or shells) or man-made (drinking glasses, books, vases, jewelry, coins, pipes, and so on).

Line: a line is a path left by a moving point

Shape: a two dimensional area with identifiable boundaries.
Geometric shapes: mechanically drawn lines, squares, rectangles, circles.
Organic shapes: shapes based on forms of nature, which are usually rounded, irregular and curving.

Emphasis is given to an area within the design because that area is meant to be seen or is more important to be noticed when compared to other places of the design. Emphasis creates a center of interest.

Pattern: Two-dimensional decorative visual repetition. Motif is a unit that is repeated in visual rhythm (suggest movement through repetition). Units in a motif may or may not be an exact duplicate of the first unit.

Composition: The act of organizing the elements of an artwork into a harmoniously unified whole.

Artwork that is created by indigenous people or original inhabitants is called aboriginal.
The Australian aboriginal culture is well known of its aboriginal art.

Characteristics of aboriginal art
1. Lines and shapes are repeated over and over in this art.
2. Pattern is an important design principle in this type of art.
3. Repeated dots are often used and repeated in this artwork.
4. This artwork could be characterized as "tribal".

.

The process of art criticism includes:
Describing
Analyzing
Interpreting
Deciding

In LAW 2, we looked at historical events that had an effect on artwork in the 60’s. Some of these events were World War II, the atomic bomb, television, Rock and Roll music, Disneyland opens in California, the Barbie doll debuts, the Vietnam War, Neil Armstrong becomes the first man to land on the moon.

One art movement that was influenced by these historical events is called Pop art

The Mexican painter whose art we studied in LAW 7 was Frida Kahlo.
Her type of artwork is called Surrealism.

In LAW 6, we studied a painting by Picasso. This painting was titled “Guernica” and depicted the horrors of war.

Be able to:
Create a simple drawing that shows: a variety of lines, shapes (geometric and organic), pattern, a strong center of interest created by using emphasis.

Create a drawing that shows crosshatching and stippling.

Create a drawing the illustrates aboriginal art.

how your grade is determined


How your grade is determined

Nine-week grades are determined by the following categories and percentages:

Grading scale
A 100-93
B 92-85
C 84-77
D 76-70
F 69 and below

Grading
How your grade is determined

Nine-week grades are determined by the following categories and percentages:
Homework 10%
Formative grades 0%
Summative grades 90%

Daily classwork: Many assignments are graded on satisfactory completion of the daily assignment. Daily classwork assignments are due on the day they are assigned. A 0 will be recorded if the daily assignment is not done. Daily assignments may only be made up for excused absences.

Projects: Assignments for projects usually contain criteria and problem solving content encompassing the entire range of cognitive abilities. The student will exhibit knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation in almost all assignments completed for a grade. Evaluation is determined by the proper execution of criteria contained in each assignment (Were all the specifications & conditions accurately met? Are minimum standards and competencies exhibited? Is the work professionally prepared and presented? etc.). Projects usually take more than one class period and count more than daily assignments. Projects are due on the due date. If project work is late and must be made up, the makeup period may be extended to 2 class periods for a maximum grade of 80. A 0 will be recorded if assignments are not completed.

I utilize rubrics, score sheets and checklists to determine the numeric grade for most projects.

Definitions
Homework: The purpose of homework is to help reinforce what was taught in class. Sometimes its purpose is to gather extra information beyond what was taught in class
Formative assessment: The goal of formative assessment is to monitor student learning to provide ongoing feedback that can be used by instructors to improve their teaching and by students to improve their learning. Formative assessments are generally low stakes, which means that they have low or no point value.

Summative assessment: The goal of summative assessment is to evaluate student learning at the end of an instructional unit by comparing it against some standard or benchmark. Summative assessments are often high stakes, which means that they have a high point value.
