Ceramics: Pre-Planning your Final Project
Create-Produce-Respond-Connect
1. Dedicate class-time to UNDERSTANDING and gaining KNOWLEDGE for the requirements of the final project.
For this class session, we will dedicate some time to discussing the requirements of your SEMESTER FINAL PROJECT. While there are still the same 4 requirements that will be needed to receive full credit, your goal will be to determine exactly what your game plan is for the up coming class time.
Intro to Art: Tessellation Octahedron
Respond
1. understand the specific steps and pre-planning involved to create a UNIQUE, TESSELLATION design.
2. Be able to confidently discuss the steps needed to consider when creating a TESSELLATION
We will be wrapping up today with our final work with tessellation designs. While most of the work we have been practicing involves specific steps, the most important take-away from today class is that you have the ability to discuss KEY differences (like where the cut-out pieces relocate to, and how to relocate the next tracing) by working through any issues you have in class. I will point out some areas that trip students up a bit, but your responsibility is to take class time and work out any issues that you might have since we will be referring to this art style for our final project.
Painting: Creating a Glazing Grid
Produce
- use a GLAZING GRID to identify and understand concepts connected to transparency, semi-transparency, or opacity
- orally ask any questions about the project demonstration they may have using PAINTING SPECIFIC VOCABULARY/TERMS.
Throughout class time over the next few days, we will be experimenting with glazing techniques and acrylic paint. This is the last area that the PAINTING 1 course covers in regards to painting techniques, which means we will soon be approaching your MID-TERM project. Up to this point, the techniques that we have practiced will need to be fully understood as to which direction you decide to take on your final painting.
