Including, where art rules are posted in the art room, and establishes assigned seating. Students will draw their summer experience in a triptych format. Line: Teacher will introduce and review the art element of line. Students will create an original work of art using various types of lines. Line: Teacher will introduce contour line and blind contour drawing. What are the different types of lines? Can a painting or a drawing be all about line? What is a contour line? While teacher records student names on seating chart, students illustrate their favorite summer experience in a triptych format. Students will identify different types of lines in artist works. Students will compare and contrast artworks by Klee, and Kandinsky. Students will create an original work of art integrating various types of lines. Students will use different types of media. Students will learn how to contour draw their thumb, hand and hand holding an object. Students will participate in drawing warm up exercise following several steps. Can you recognize how artists use the art element of line in their artwork? How can lines express feelings, movement, or suggest a sense of calm? How often do you think about making different types of lines in the art making process? What different types of art media can you use to make a line? What lines have the most emphasis in your artwork? For your contour drawing to be successful what are the important points to remember? What was the most challenging part for you to stay focused on?
