POINTILLISM: 7th grade
We are exploring pointillism in 7th grade
POINTILLISM:
Pointillism /ˈpɔɪntᵻlɪzəm/ is a technique of painting in which small, distinct dots of color are applied in patterns to form an image. Georges Seurat and Paul Signac developed the technique in 1886, branching from Impressionism.
Students Use predetermined REFERENCES: our favorite CARTOON CHARACTERS.
IN THE INTEREST OF TIME:
All have been sized and grided in photoshop to be able to be re drawn and re- sized by each student to twice the size on a hand drawn grid of equal PROPORTION.
After the character is drawn- We discuss the importance of layering color for pointillism and how dots of color should be seen in order to give the viewer new colors from distances.
COLOR SCHEMES
We chose a warm and cool color scheme for this project. All NEGATIVE SPACE will be completed using a variety of warm colors starting with Yellow and continuing through Red.
All POSITIVE SPACE will be finished in a variety of Cool colors and the Colors are detrmined by the references' CONTRAST.
MORE TO COME...

7th grade BALANCE Project
We Used Balance as the focal point for our latest project.
CLICK HERE FOR OUR POWER POINT
BALANCE is not the only useful element we used for our project- Using LINE and SHAPE to create a Positive and Negative space.
The shape of an animal was used twice in both the positive and negative space on a 12"x18" piece of paper.
The negative space that is white was also adorned with ZENTANGLE

WELCOME BACK!!
This year I will have 6th 7th and 8th graders.
6TH
I have 1 class of 6th grade in 2 groups. AB days on 1st period and CD days 1st period
7TH
On periods 2, 3, 5 & 7 I have 7th grade everyday for 1 quarter (10 weeks). After the 10 week quarter is over I will get another group of students for those periods.
8TH
The 8th graders I have are in the same room as my 7th graders at the same time but the share the same schedule as the 6th graders. So I have groups of 8th graders in periods 2, 5 and 7 all year in 2 groups on AB and CD days.
Confused yet? its ok so am I, but we all manage to get through the year and the kids have a pretty good experience while learning a lot about art and themselves in the process.
