We'll start the semester learning about CANADA (2 weeks) and artist Emily Carr as we look to nature for inspiration. Students will use watercolor to paint realistic leaves, then paint a woodland landscape as they learn about perspective and value.
|
Students will use bamboo brushes , rice paper and yupo to try "sumi-e", a painting technique of JAPAN.
|
We will spend 2 weeks on ENGLAND. First, students will hone their drawing skills as they learn the art of scientific illustration inspired by artist (and Peter Rabbit author), Beatrix Potter.
|
In part 2 of our lesson on England, students will design either a collage, or a poem using printed text, drawing and watercolor.
|
On to SPAIN. The first part of this lesson will focus on surrealism. Students will choose between making a fun, folded "exquisite corpse" book, or drawing a surreal scene using a real, everyday object as a prompt.
The art of BRAZIL is bright and colorful. Students will use real feather as their inspiration. They can choose to paint directly on
the feather, or use it as a reference. |
The second part of our lessons on Spain will teach students the art style of cubism. Students will learn how to portray an image from several different perspectives at once.
