Sight-Size is a method of drawing and painting an object exactly as it appears to the artist, on a one-to-one scale. The artist first sets a vantage point where the subject and the drawing surface appear to be the same size. Let's start with a video from a still life using sighting

E.Q. How does life on this planet depend for survival upon the awareness of form, space , and movement? Discuss this with an elbow partner. Consider the purpose of an artist to communicate 3 dimensions on a 2 dimensional picture plane. How does she do it? The following vocabulary should help... Edges planes texture gradation space value tone Line Study the images below, to define the vocabulary Assignment: fold and roll a strip of paper so that there are at least 2 planes and two curves, similar to the image on the right. arrange that form on a page of your sketchbook, you will be drawing on the facing page. Like this... Draw a light outline of the form as shown here, you will want to erase lines that should be edges later.
Try to match as best you can the values with your pencil. Is the edge light or dark? What happens when the form meets the page it is sitting on? A cast shadow? reflected light? Consider how to carefully gradate the light around the curve. Next, change the position of the form and redraw. Finally,as in the first image, you will turn this ribbon into a three dimensional form by mirroring the line on both sides of a center line.( symmetrical balance) and attempt to follow the rules of shading as you did for the ribbon forms. View the Depth Techniques Powerpoint. Create a Name card that is 1. Your Name (readable) 2. One or mare depth Techniques 3. An environment for the letters of your name to live in. (Fill the space of the card 4. Add a personal element that tells us about you. 5. Do an interview with a partner. Write the answers to these questions inside your name card then share them with your interviewer. What’s your name? Have you ever lived anywhere outside of Utah? Where? What’s your favorite subject in school? What is one interesting thing you did over the summer? Explain your Name card to me. What depth technique(s) did you use? What does your personal element tell me about you? After seeing other student's work, what is one thing you could have done to improve your artwork to make it look more 3D?
Elements and Principles part 4: Taking the masterpiece that you and your partner analyzed, redraw it in your sketchbook emphasizing only the one element and one principle that you identified. This is based on the assignment "Draw a Still Life" from Scholastic Art magazine September/October 2012
Student view and discuss power point on visual vocabulary from East High page. Take one page of focus notes on Elements, the essential question is " Why do we have a visual vocabulary? Then take one page of notes on the Principles of Art, the essential question is "How does knowing and using visual art vocabularies help us understand and interpret works of art?
Part 2: Work with a partner to locate an image (famous masterpiece) either from in the room or from one of the Scholastic magazines. Discuss a dominant element and a dominant principle that the artist used in creating that work of art. Write your answers on the back of the Design Matrix paper. Identify who the artist is and the name of the artwork. Part. 3: Fill in the Design matrix with examples of how each element can describe each principle.of art (much like a multiplication table).
We are going to add color effects to our one point perspective drawing. Follow the instructions in the power point to try layering with spheres, burnishing with cherries, the textures of wood grain, and the effect of a pebbles and stones. Then add these details to your drawing using the principles of atmospheric perspective and scale to make it look realistic. Using Pen and Ink or Scratchboard, students will create a portrait of an amimal using the skills we have practised in pen and ink to create values through the build up or removal of ink, rather than through blending of carbon or charcoal. the coal is to create a full range of values and textures through various techniques using the pen or scratch tool. Additionally students should consider other art principles in the composition of the image, i.e. use of positive negative space, balance, contrast, etc. Reference the following rubric to understand the expectations.... Project: Pen and Ink or Scratchboard Animal Advanced 4 Proficient 3 Emerging 2 Below Expectations 1 Criteria: Project is completed on time, is the specified size, is mounted, and makes use of a variety of mark-making techniques to simulate textures and values. Craftsmanship: Project is clean and well presented, animal fills the space on the page with equal emphasis for positive and negative space, shows contrast and gradation of values Creativity: Project is from an original source, tackled in an original way, is not a direct copy from another artist’s work.
It is important to understand how important it is to capture the correct values when we draw and paint. What I want you to do for this exercise is create a value chart for the medium that you will be working in. First watch the video. I am attaching a file of a 10 step chromatic Value and gradation chart that you can print and use to find values. This is easiest to do with a black and white photo but can be done with color too, once you have learned how to see. First make a copy of the value chart with the medium you are using, even if that is a color. Squint to match the values. Then number them with white being a number 1 and black a number 10. You will need to use a white colored pencil in the darker values 7-10. Now in your sketchbook or on a rough draft, using the medium of choice, duplicate the values and number them. This can be done with pencil, charcoal, watercolor, acrylic, etc. Whatever medium you will be working in should be your choice. Watercolor students, do this with black, then blue, green, and reddish brown.
