Elements and Principles Of Art

For this picture, I captured the lines that are visible on the heating duct in my room. This picture represents the lines on the duct. 

For this picture, I captured a picture of a print that is of a sunset that was taken last summer. I created it in black and white to really bring out the light to dark colors on the sunset. This picture represents value. 



This is a picture of my curtain and I used this picture to represent shapes because the shape that is displayed here is unique and uniform.


For this picture, I chose a salt rock lamp as it casts a showdown and really gives it a 3-D look. I used this to represent space.  



For this first picture, I chose a rug in my house. This rug is used to represent the texture and our sense of touch.

Dot Painting

Image
 In this lesson, we looked at various artists who created paintings by only using dots with paint. We got to do this lesson on our own by creating a flower and then we use the dot painting approach and paint the flower using dots. If you look closely at the painting you can see the dots but when you are far away from the painting the dots blend together to create the painting we see.  Extension activity: Geometry Students would have to choose to complete the dot painting theory one shape they want and then they have to measure the perimeter of the shape and document that. The students would then. have to think pair share with another student and tell the other student how they got the perimeter and show the student as well. For gifted students, I would ask them to find the area instead of the perimeter and they would have to think pair share to the teacher how they got the area.

Contrasting Color picture

Image
In this activity, we had to pick two colors that were contrasting colors which means they are on opposite sides of the color wheel which helps to make the picture stand out. We had to trace the fish and cut it out multiple times and then glue it onto the paper. We then get to use pre-cut strips of paper to create a background that also helps make the picture stand out more vibrantly.  Extension Activity: Science lesson. In a science lesson, students would get to research and chose whatever animal they wanted and then they would still complete the artwork lesson but then they would have to write a brief description of why they chose that animal and 3 fun facts about that animal they learned.  Students would also get the option to share with the class about the animal they chose and the fun facts they learned about that animal.

Dot Day

Image
Dot day is an international day that celebrates creativity, courage, and collaboration. Therefore, to celebrate this harmonious day we incorporated our art lesson with a language arts lesson. First, we read  The Dot  by Peter Reynolds. After reading our story, we were asked to create a piece of artwork that contained a dot and a few different mediums, such as markers, oil pastels, crayons, sharpies, colored pencils, watercolors, etc. After we finished our artwork we used a paintbrush to coat our work with water to see what mediums bled or didn't bleed . Here I used oil pastels, markers, and watercolor paints. In my mind, I was creating a sunset using a bunch of different dots that would eventually combine to form a sunset but I believe that it turned out more as a tie-die-looking piece of artwork.  Extention Activity: A math teacher probably for the grade 6th and up, could have her students draw a variety of dots that differ in size. They could then use a ruler to explore...
