In The Art Studio…

Wow, your landscapes are turning out wonderful. Your paintings are showing an understanding of depth and value. This material is fun and fast to work with, I hope you enjoyed this material… It is one of my favorite. This week we will finish up the unit and begin clay… Yes clay… I know you all have been looking forward to this next unit. So get ready to get a bit messy.

Well the unit on discovering the different media is almost pau… This week we are completing the plexi-glass piece and next week we will be scanning to the computer. Make sure you make a clean copy of your Master cartoon before next week. This way when we go to the computer lab, your art will scan cleanly. We will be finishing up the mask this week as well. Just to make sure you have all your pieces, I will be holding all pieces: Marker, Color pencil, Watercolor… We will mount them soon… ☺ great job on all your pieces so far, I can’t wait to see them all together.

I am seeing great ideas and designs for your upcoming Stained Glass unit. Remember to keep your designs simple, no shading or texture… color book style. You need to write your meaning behind your icon on the back of your sketch so you are able to talk about your art later. We will be starting the unit with marker as the material / medium.

Yes! We made it through our first week and you all have a wonderful first studio art pieces. Marker is a great material / medium and you were able to use it in several ways. Make sure to add the “little details” and “scenes” for the viewers. This project will be due next week.

Prepare for a pop quiz on your elements as well. Have a good weekend.
