For this project, you will be applying your knowledge of the elements and principles of design to create a collaborative piece of art in the style of Elizabeth Murray.
|
LEARNING TARGETS:
- I can use the artistic process to come up with an idea to make a piece of abstract art.
- I can use my knowledge of abstract art to be able to evaluate when abstract art is good or bad.
- I can understand how to use the elements and principles of design to make a strong composition.
- I can mix colors of varying hue, value, and intensity from primaries.
Skills Practice
Complete the following design investigation activities. Be sure to collect visual documentation as you go.
1. Use Sketchnotes to take notes on the elements of design. Your notes should include all of the information in the note sheet, as well as visual examples. Remember that this is your resource so write in your own words and use examples and formatting that make sense to you.

2. Watch the Art 21 Video on Elizabeth Murray
3. Sketch at least 30 ideas for shapes you could make for you Elizabeth Murray piece. These should be small (about 1") and fast.
4. Scale your shape up so one dimension is at least 18". Start your project by tracing your shape onto cardboard. Remember to choose the smallest piece possible that it will fit and draw as close to the edge as possible to keep from having unusable scrap. As you work and get feedback, make improvements and adjustments to your piece. Once you have problem solved any remaining issues, you are ready to present!
