Sketchbook work snapshot!

Most class periods will involve some kind of work in the SKETCHBOOK.
Students are expected to use visual prompts, class visuals, the ARTTALK book etc.

Students work to complete the assigned sketchbook work as they learn new skills, media, terms and how to better articulate what they are creating.

SKETCHBOOK WORK:

Draw examples of and explain with words == label clearly all of the following terms:

Look at, describe and define GESTURE line drawing
Define PROPORTION and Use the handout information and sketch the human figure that is

IN proportion (USE the 8 sections)

List many ACTIONS that show human movement as you can think of- add ideas from others to this list
Record notes for what ways E. Muybridge Etienne-Jules Marey, Duchamp, and Richter show movement
Create study drawings of different action poses using gesture lines to gather ideas about position and proportion. Stay loose and fluid!
Divide a page into 2 parts and sketch the “Skeletal System” and the “Muscular System”

Here is a photo breakdown for the sketchbook work for this last project.

Using PHOTOGRAPHS to make Artwork

The BEST way to utilize photographs in artwork is to take the picture yourself. Next best would be to have a friend or relative (someone you know) let you utilize a photograph that they took WITH THEIR PERMISSION. The other way to utilize a photograph in making a drawing or painting would be to utilize a professional photographer's photo. You will either PAY to use the image or find images from an OPEN SOURCE website and use Photos that are available for public use.
Some Open Source Photography sites Include:
stock free images
dreamstime
openstock
