Art I Projects

Class projects will cover a variety of skills, content, and media. We will start with an introduction to drawing skills as a foundation on which to build. This page will contain important details, resources, and information related to each project. It is your responsibility to use this page to help guide and reinforce your learning.

OBJECTIVES:
  1. Understand how the Pop Art movement came to be; compare and contrast it with other art movements 
  2. Understand and manipulate color's 3 properties: HUE, VALUE, and SATURATION through the medium of paint
  3. Experience the way that an artist has control over the choice and purposeful use of color
  4. Draw the still life accurately and with good composition (use ALL the skills we have been practicing this year!)
  5. Select an ARBITRARY color scheme with which to paint the still life while matching observed values
  6. Paint highlights, mid-tones, shadow edges, and cast shadows to create the illusion of real form
  7. Use selected Pop Art attributes to finish the work (Ben Day dots, etc.)
  8. Mount work for display
  9. Self-assess work to comprehend growth and understanding of concepts and objectives
Here are some examples from past years:
