8 Visual Art 2
Weekly outline
-
Hi Everyone
I am really excited to be working with those of you whom I taught last year and it will be lovely to work with students who are new to my classes.
This term we will work in with the Mountains context for Year 7 and 8 which is 'Wai or Kai not'. This is a focus on our waters and fishing sustainability in NZ
Artists sometimes create art to make a social statement and we will be doing just that. Our fabulous artworks will be put on display in the library and around the school to raise awareness of the sustainability of our oceans and fish life within..

Learning Intention: We are learning to draw forms with accuracy and use correct proportion.
Task: Using the google slide presentation to refer to follow the activities set. Use the folders of zoo animals or follow a video on how to draw an animal using pen to gain a better understanding of the types of things you need to know in order to draw realistically.
Please don't draw cartoon animals..... we are trying to improve our observational drawing skills

Learning intention: We are learning to think and practise the different types of marks needed to create detail and form in our animal drawings. We will be focussing on the element of line.
Task: Using the resource folders of animals provided by the teacher, practise drawing animals. The focus is to draw them with accurately but to really think about the way you use lines to create detail and form.
Please make sure at the end of each session the pencils, pens and white pencils are returned and that the animal pictures you use are in the correct folder.
