It's been a great six weeks! Enjoy your time in drama and music!
We've learned all about different types of symmetry over the last six weeks. This week, we looked at a really neat webpage that lets you paint and create a symmetrical image with the click of a mouse! You can even change the symmetry from bilateral to radial! Check it out: www.weavesilk.com 26.A.3e Visual Arts: Describe how the choices of tools/technologies and processes are used to create specific effects in the arts.
We all know how cool the texture plates are... we also know that creating monsters and robots are fun too... So we decided to do both! We made some really funny narrative pictures of creature. First, we drew our pictures in pencil and then finalized them in ink and then used the texture plates and colored pencils to give them some pizzazz! Everyone had a good time making up a weird creature to come visit us in the art room! 25.A.1d Visual Arts:
Identify the elements of line, shape, space, color and texture; the principles of repetition and pattern; and the expressive qualities of mood, emotion and pictorial representation In second grade we learn about radial symmetry and made simple radial symmetry drawings. This year, we are expanding out knowledge in this are to create radial symmetry collages. We started by creating blocks of color which to cut out our shapes. Each shape we made has three other identical matches to it. We then folded our background paper to help guide us with our gluing. It's fun to incorporate mathematics into our art! 26.A.3e Visual Arts: Describe how the choices of tools/technologies and processes are used to create specific effects in the arts.
What is a tint of a color? What is a shade of a color? In art, a tint is a color diluted with white. A shade is the opposite, it has black added to it. We each chose a color to create four different tints, and 4 different shades. We used tempera paints and carefully mixed our colors. We then created a scale going from lightest to darkest. 25.A.2d Visual Arts: Identify and describe the elements of 2- and 3-dimensional space, figure ground, value and form; the principles of rhythm, size, proportion and composition; and the expressive qualities of symbol and story.
