Watch the flipped classroom tutorial and be prepared to share in our class discussion of this painting. We will be studying the art and life of Vincent Van Gogh. We will also paint in the style of Van Gogh for the purpose of "feeling" what it is like to paint with line movement, texture and color. Although we will look at many of his paintings, we will be focusing on Starry Night for our class assignment. This tutorial is a brief introduction to an art movement called, Surrealism. Two surrealistic artists that we will be studying is Rene Magritte and Salvador Dali. You will be asked to create a surrealistic drawing using cut outs from magazines.

View the Flipped Classroom video and begin thinking about your surrealistic hand design. I will demonstrate in class on exactly how to begin...I want you to come to class with ideas for your drawing!!! Flipped Classroom: Color WheelPlease view this Powerpoint presentation to get inspiration for your final color wheel final project. Please note that you will have many different avenues to chose. Many of you will create the drawing/painting by using your entire color wheel and designing around it, however as you can see by the student examples the colors do not have to be in a 'wheel' format. Check the rubric and understand exactly what I am looking for but most importantly...BE CREATIVE! Flipped Classroom: Color TheoryThis week we will begin a unit in color theory. Color is an essential element of art. I created this tutorial as an interactive Smartboard presentation for educators, however you can view the slides for the basic color knowledge (just ignore my voice-over that was meant for teachers). We will review this information in class. |
