8th Grade - Spelman & Morehouse
Monday we will finish printing our patterned papers using the objects or patterns you created on the printmaking plate. All of this is based on Kehinde Wiley's artwork, which can be seen until May 24th at the Brooklyn Museum. YOU SHOULD REALLY SEE THE SHOW IN PERSON...there's nothing like seeing artwork in real life! Come to class ready to work on Monday!
If you missed the movie on Kehinde Wiley "An Economy of Grace", watch it here. Do Overs for the Do Now are THIS MONDAY ONLY.
**Bring in or email 1-4 Baby Pictures for 1-4 Dojo Points (1 pt per photo) to jhillman@cpcsschool.org
5th Grade - Xavier & Tuskegee
Show and Tell in art class (Monday for Xavier and THURSDAY for Tuskegee) when you bring in an example of currency from another country. Notes or Bills are preferable, but you earn Dojo points either way! Show me the money!!! Project begins this week, but first...portraiture. Vocabulary is due next class (test soon!).
7th Grade - Howard & FAMU
This doesn't look human, but it will! |
Realistic portraiture is NO JOKE... It's difficult but you are all up to the challenge. This week, you will receive a packet to help you practice at home and in class. Self-portraits go from there. Take your time, read the directions, then follow them! Sequence is important in this technique.
6th Grade Hampton & FISK
Jean-Michel Basquiat handouts are due Monday (for FISK) and THURSDAY (for Hampton). I HIGHLY RECOMMEND going to the Brooklyn Museum to see his Notebook exhibit (and while you're there, you must see the Kehinde Wiley exhibit)!
