Learning about Jackson Pollock, how do our personalities differ from his style of art, or are they the same. How better to learn about emotions than evaluating your self with Jackson himself.
The students had a great time experimenting how to cast their bodies in tape last semester. We learned about the human form while discovering how placing an object in a particular space can take on new meaning.
Ink Blots and Zen-tangles Collide Students had a bit of fun making ink blots, but we then filled all the open areas with Zen-tangles. We talked about abstract art, and being inspired by opportunity and space. We talked about treating each area of their ink blot as an opportunity not a challenge. We later introduce the basics of color schemes. The students were able to pick their own color scheme to incorporate into their art. I think they are fabulous! So are finished some are not but no matter what drawing level a student is at they turn out great.
An Art Teacher Has to Create Too! I just finished two artworks, and it only took 3 months. Sometimes I wonder how art teachers ever find time to make their own art, but I guess we find time for all of our passions. And today it's my own art. Enjoy!
