Art 1 students learned about Andy Goldsworthy, an environmental artist and sculptor. After becoming more familiar with the surroundings of the school and analyzing the materials they had to work with, students created sculptures using only local materials. After they completed their sculptures, they took photos of the work to record it, as their sculptures will dissolve over time outside.
Advanced
Art students finished working on 2 different assignments based on
photographic images that will be due after Spring Break. The first is a
Typography Contour Drawing of a photograph, using lines of type instead
of drawn lines. Students will explore how Typography can become a design
element and be used as drawings instead of just lines to read. The
second assignment is a Surrealist linoleum block carving and print.
Students will take a photographic image and reproduce it as a linoleum
block print, adding images or elements to transform the realistic image
into a Surreal image.
All entries of the Top 20 are now due the Monday after Spring Break for a test grade.
