This project was about extending each straight line in one's name to make it abstract!
Artwork showing texture from oil pastels, paint, and paper cut-outs. *Apologies for the pictures on their side.
The unit is linked to the class' Unit of Inquiry about the human body. In Art, the objective was to draw the human body with the best scale and proportion possible. The slideshow below shows the students inquiring about how tall a human being is in "heads." After finding out how tall a human is in "heads," they started sketching using an artist's mannequin as a guide.
Each student makes a unique portfolio at the start of the year. We use this to store artworks and helps collect artwork of a student who leaves in the middle of the year. Of course, students get to take these home at the end of the year to start their own BIFS ARTfolio collection! |
