Student Artwork
Objectives
Students will:
• demonstrate an understanding of the elements and principles of art.
• create artist trading cards, one each that effectively depicts the different elements and principles of art.
Procedure
Artist trading cards are miniature works of art traded by all ages. They can be made with any media, materials, or techniques, as long as they fit into a plastic trading card sleeve.
We will learn about the Elements of Art and Principles of Design. Two people at the table group will create trading cards for the elements of art. Two people at the same table group will make trading cards for the principles of design. These terms are very important to learn if you decided to take art with me next year and if you decide to take any art in high school.
Free Hand Drawing: Please draw examples for each art term on trading card paper (card-stock paper).
Ideas:
For line: create a line design with as many types of line as possible, on your first card, using marker.
For the shape card, make a small collage using different kinds and shapes of paper.
For the form card, make a three-dimensional card using low relief by rolling or folding paper. The card must still fit within the plastic sleeve.
For the texture card, make a textured collage with as many different textures as possible.
For the space card, make a design or picture that shows positive and negative space.
For the color card, make a design or picture that uses the primary colors, red, yellow, and blue.
For the value card, make a design or picture that shows different values of the same color.
For the proportion card, make a design or picture that shows proportion.
For the movement and rhythm card, make a design or picture that shows movement and rhythm.
For balance, show symmetrical balance and asymmetrical balance.
For emphasis make a design or picture that shows emphasis.
