Remix #1 Dec. 12th 2012

 

Mrs. Nicora/ Advanced Art – Adobe Photoshop Touch App – Tastes Like Chicken (traditional lesson)

 

In this lesson students are asked to create an imaginary world based on being hatched from an egg as an unknown creature in connection to environmental changes.  To do this, students will take images of various landscape perspectives along with images of an egg and a “newly hatched being”. The images will be condensed into one (depth of) space, and one light source becoming a narrative that includes mood, compositional arrangement and use of proportion.

______________________________________________________________________________

Critique:   Digital art utilizing layers of images combined will be analyzed based on the elements, the principles and compositional arrangements.   No specific artists will be studied but surreal art will be studied as a connection to unknown environments in the introduction.

 

Sketchbook: Students will first use simple drawings in their sketchbook to build their landscape ideas and use these in a final sketch done with an app.

 

Introduction:

Practice - The teacher will introduce this app with activities for exploration before giving the final project and guidelines. Students will be asked to take pictures using the iPad and go through a series of challenges to familiarize themselves with this app to reach the goals for this project. (Chang e the value, color, filters, crop the image, and finally merge it in layers with other images.)

 

The project introduction – Students are asked to brain storm and apply previous knowledge of climate change in relation to changes in plant and animal life in order to survive.

Students are asked to create a landscape based on their theories using images. 

Students are asked to apply their theories in developing a creature that would hatch from an egg in this new environment. (Questions become what type of egg, what surface quality of the egg, what adaptations are necessary for a new creature to survive and what climate will exist?)

The students will use images in the app to layer with transparency, value and color changes, cropping, and merging.  Students are encouraged to use this technology in any way they choose to expand the final composition, principles and elements for overall form.

 

The students will flatten the final image and print in color onto photo paper.  A 300 Dpi image will be required as a final print for a grade.    

 

Cathy Nicora – Art

 

Advanced Art:  Lesson 3 – Emotion Unit:  Content and Meaning (iPad remix)

In this group of projects, the theme of emotion is addressed to put feeling into art forms.

Students will focus on two extremes – excitement and serenity.

 

Goals/Criteria:

-Shadow Types          -depth of space        -Textures       - Value Variations          -Brush work 

-Warm colors            - Cool colors              - Fully developed compositions          -Color blending 

___________________________________________________________________________

 

Critique:  Students will investigate two artists to compare art emotions in a worksheet.  The first artist is Frederic Remington for excitement in his Western art and Robert Dowling for Surrealism and Serenity.

Estimated Due Date:  2 Days after Introduction – Grade 10 pts X 2

 

Sketchbook:  Students will work on their iPads using the Draw Free app in two parts developing 5 various drawings for each emotion.  Focus will first be put on excitement.  Part two will focus on serenity.  A Final sketch will be produced for each part.  The final sketches are what the students will follow for their art production projects.

 

Estimated Due Date:  3 Days after critique is complete – Grade 10 pts. for each group of 5 and 1 final sketch.

 

_ Introduction:

The teacher will lead a review discussion of shadow types in relation to creating form and depth of space.  Emotions will be discussed in connection to content and form and the artists/artworks that students will use for the critiques.

 

____________________________________________________________________________

Art Production:  2 Acrylic Paintings

 

-Students will draw their sketches onto iPad with Draw Free app.

Using ArtRage app or Brushes app

-Students will lay in a midtone color into their shapes, blending colors as they work. 

-Students will lay in Highlight colors (warm colors) for sun direction into their shapes.

-Students will lay in Shadow colors (cool colors) for shading forms.

-Students will create details with small brush work areas.

 

Estimated Due Date:  5-8 Days for each painting.  Each painting – Graded as 80 pts.-using a rubric and evaluating for scholastics and art displays.

 

This assignment can easily be introduced into Adobe Photoshop Touch app with images for subjects of loss, surprise, etc.
