 Students are creating 2D self-portraits using their choice of drawing media.

Due date: Tuesday March 27th end of class Vocabulary terms: Proportion Value Perspective Foreground Middle Ground Background Portrait Self-portrait Scale = Size Balance and Symmetry Students will be bringing home a syllabus for a parent/guardian to sign.
Students are required to get a sketchbook by Monday's class. We will be using this sketchbook daily and it will be 40% of the students grade. I also sent home a sketchbook order form if you would like to purchase one from the school for $5.00. The money goes directly back into the art program for supplies. Students were also given the choice to get a canvas product to paint for their final artwork OR they may paint a ceiling tile for the art room. If your students want to purchase canvas shoes Walmart and Amazon have the best pricing. They may also get a canvas hat or bag or panel. Looking forward to having an exciting quarter! Students are working on designing their canvas shoe or canvas item.
Students selected a theme for their product and are applying color with sharpie and acrylic paint. Students that plan to wear their shoe need to seal them.
Students chose their subject matter for their composition.
Students then turned their image into a mosaic using paint swatches. Students are creating Surreal 2D pieces that incorporate hands as part of their subject matter.
Surreal Art was popular in the 1920's through the 1930's and the artworks depicts a dreamlike quality with unusual/bizarre placement of objects. Students are producing 2D self-portraits using their choice of medium.
