Pop Art These videos should give you a good understanding of Pop Art. Write notes in your DWB (bullet points and personal comments to show your understanding)
Watch the following videos and write notes describing the steps the artists followed.
Now look for examples which ar demonstrating elements which apply to you. For example if you are painting mountains find some which are painting mountains. That way you can see how the techniques are applied. If you are painting clouds search "painting clouds in acrylics" on You Tube. Write notes about what you discovered.
Examples of interesting journals.
A major part of your assessment is to produce a Developmental Workbook (DWB) which reflects your understanding of art and design including research, experiments, ideas, sketches and personal reflections. Evidence of criteria A,B,C and D will be in your books. You should take great pride with these books. You will work on them at home and in class. DO NOT FORGET YOUR BOOK.
Your workbook will be a combination of a journal, research book and a sketchbook presented in a "visually interesting way”. It will be checked at the beginning of every week.
This book is a brilliant opportunity to practise as a “REAL” artist.
Here are some examples of art journals by Frank Curkovic
This is the video (with the sound) that we watched. Amazing works of Jim Warren.
