Welcome to
Art 8 ! Eighth Grade Art is a continuation of the program established in seventh grade. We will expand upon basic drawing and painting skills as well as the Principles and Elements of Design. Creativity and experimentation are not encouraged; they are expected.
CLASS ASSIGNMENTS:
I will post assignments and worksheets to complete at home on your class page. HOMEWORK: You will do ONE drawing a week in your sketchbook. Check your class page for homework lists and requirements. EXTRA CREDIT: Of course, if you do additional drawings on unlined paper at home during this time they will count for extra credit if you bring them in. Take your time and use the skills you learned in class about composition, proportion and looking carefully at the subject. You may also do research on an artist, painting or art style (movement). Write a one page paper on what you discovered. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE EMAIL ME AT: [email protected] |
SUPPLIES NEEDED for EVERY CLASS: Click the supply list button for more details - a 9"x 12" hardcover bound sketchbook. (8 1/2" x 11" is fine too) You can use your sketchbook from last year if you have lots of unused pages. -a box of #2 pencils -a large ziploc bag to hold it all. I will supply all other materials needed. |
