This document discusses different types of sketches and how to effectively sketch objects for decorative purposes. It explains that sketches capture unique personal expressions and emotions in a way that photos cannot. Sketches of flowers, leaves, and animals for decoration involve carefully studying and drawing the subject's structure, rhythm, and beauty in a way that can be stylized. When sketching animals, the key is capturing the pose and characteristics that convey the subject's spirit, rather than every detail. Sketches are needed to transform objective images into artistic representations suited to different materials and purposes.

Guide to Writing a Formal Analysis
Description: A formal analysis includes an analysis of the forms appearing in the work you have chosen. These forms give the work its expression, message, or meaning. A formal analysis assumes a work of art is (1) a constructed object (2) that has been created with a stable meaning (even though it might not be clear to the viewer) (3) that can be ascertained by studying the relationships between the elements of the work. To aid in writing a formal analysis, you should think as if you were describing the work of art to someone who has never seen it before. When your reader finishes reading your analysis, she/he should have a complete mental picture of what the work looks like. Yet, the formal analysis is more than just a description of the work. It should also include a thesis statement/theme that reflects your conclusions about the work. The thesis statement may, in general, answer a question like these: What do I think is the meaning of this work? What is the message that this work or artist sends to the viewer? What is this work all about? The thesis statement is an important element. It sets the tone for the entire paper, and sets it apart from being a merely descriptive paper.
Format for the Paper: Two pages, double-spaced, 10 or 12 pt font, 1” borders. Make sure you proofread your papers for adhering to the information listed above, as well as incorrect grammar, spelling, punctuation, and other errors.
In the first paragraph, called the introduction, you will include:
•the name of the artist (if known), title (which is underlined or italicizedevery time you use the title in your paper), date
•what you think is the subject
•a very brief description of the work
•thesis statement - usually the last line or so of your first paragraph.
From that point, the rest of the formal analysis should include not only a description of the piece, but especially those details of the work that have led you to come to your conclusion. Yet, your paper should not be a random flow of ideas about the work (i.e. stream of consciousness writing). Rather, your paper should have a sense of order, moving purposefully through your description with regard to specific elements (ex: one paragraph may deal with composition, another with a description of the figures, another with the background, another about line, etc.). Finally, in your conclusion (the final paragraph) you should end your paper by pulling your threads together in a conclusion that in some way bears a relationship with your stated theme.
NO RESEARCH IS TO BE USED IN THIS PAPER. In other words, you are strictly relying on your ability to visually ‘read’ a work of art and make interpretations about it based on your analysis of it. Remember too that your analysis should not be just a mechanical, physical description. Please use descriptive language and adjectives to describe your work. Begin with a general description of the work, and then move on to ...

Art, and especially visual arts, is the topic that requires both background knowledge and imagination. Most teachers are afraid of it, the same as most students are bored with it. However, with the concept maps and cause-and-effect sentences it may become a source of fun in the English classroom. So, to make teaching of art more effective, I suggest a couple of ideas, which will also be the key points for the workshop:
1) Basic history of art - it gives us not just facts but useful vocabulary for describing works of art.
2) Elements of design and what they mean.
3) How to describe a picture or a photograph.

“Train of Thought” by Leo Bridle
Simple Outline
“A Journey for Love”
I. Leo Bridle and Ben Thomas were the film makers.
a. I believe they are in their late 20s and early 30s, and they graduated from the Arts Institute at Bournemouth.
b. From the United Kingdom.
II. The basic structure of the artwork is Film.
a. Material used was digital compositing software and all the animations were done by hand and not the compositing software.
b. The subject of the seemed to be the young artist and he seemed to have been in search of someone. Everything seemed to be between and a gray/sepia scale with a design using cut outs and wooden toys.
III. I think this whole film was based on love.
a. My 1st idea is that he is trying to find the woman he loved. He may have seen her before at the station and drawn her out of memory and may have come back to find her there. When he didn’t, he hopped on the train in search for her only to come up empty. I believe he used his drawing pad as some sort of map as to where she may have been. When he doesn’t find her, he returns to the station once again and this time, he finds her. He then realizes that she may be an artist as well and may have gone through the same processes to find each other.
b. My 2nd idea is that he may have drawn her as well as the other drawings in his book subconsciously and realized this was a woman he had to meet. He then returns to the train station, which is the setting of his drawing. When she doesn’t come, he hops on the train and then goes in search for the woman that he loves. When he doesn’t find her he returns back to the station and that is where he finally sees her. They go towards each other and hold hands, seeming like they both went through the same measures to find each other.
I think the way the film makers used photography and film made this a very interesting form of media. Everything looked cartooned and real at the same time. The train station and the train themselves looked like they were made out of wooden toys and the people all looked like cut outs that were animated to look like they were moving, inside of their cut out frames. This was a well done film and they filmmakers did a wonderful job. I must say it sure caught my attention.

1. SOULMATE SKETCH - PSYCHIC DRAWINGS
1. What is a sketch?
Sketching is drawing and taking notes in the artist's way in front of different
descriptive objects.
Sketches have many different purposes such as sketches to document page layout,
sketches to decorate documents, sketches directly into sketches, and sketches to
memorize, .... Therefore, there are many different ways or methods of sketching. For
example: Sketching with pencil on paper, sketching with ink, liquid, pastel, gouache,
iron pen, brush, etc. moving objects such as people, objects, birds, and animals, ...
or when the artist has very little time to take advantage of a few minutes to catch up,
such as a few landscape strokes to remember, fleeting living landscapes, shapes the
animals pass by. ...
Deep sketch, also known as deep drawing, is used to draw relatively static objects,
architectural landscapes, decorative motifs, architecture, tools, clothes, etc. painting
if there is an ideological theme and a good aesthetic feeling is achieved.
The above is about sketching in general, and this document will talk about sketching
as a document to make decorative layouts and depending on the object, the
situation, and the requirements, using the short drawing method, the intensive
sketching method. acting or sketching for the purpose of taking notes for memory.
2. 2. Why sketch? Can I use photo documents?
There are many reasons why professional artists and students alike need to sketch.
From the point of view of MS Fine Arts, we believe that sketching is an indispensable
subject for any artist. In front of each object, each person's emotions are rarely the
same. For example, the same sketch of a country fair scene has an artist painting a
dull and poor picture, while another artist exploits the bustling rhythmic aspect into a
rhythmic decorative painting like on the stage... . That is not to mention the
difference in the vibration of each person's pen. Therefore, the objectivity of the
photo can be one of the references, but it cannot be substituted for the sketch
because, in essence, art is the creation with the most personal imprints.
On the other hand, sketching is a method of practicing the ability to transform
objective images of nature into artistic vestiges, which in turn can be transformed
into compositions, easels, or decorations. If we look at the lacquer painting - a
decorative screen depicting the mosquito nets and banana leaves by the artist
Nguyen Gia Tri, we will understand the above things more deeply, and understand
why sketches and photographs are not necessary. can replace the sketch.
3. 3. Is the sketch of flowers and animals used as decorative materials
different from the sketches used for easel paintings?
In essence, there is no difference, but for different purposes, the drawing
requirements are also somewhat different. As for sketches as decorative materials,
we also go through a creative phase, followed by stylization into decorative motifs,
then rearranging, adding, and removing new lines and pieces into a layout. decorate.
and if it is a decorative layout made of paper-cut materials, curling iron or ceramic,
woolen carpet, lacquer, or glass.... how to decorate it to suit the reality of processing
technology. The art of each material, even more, dominates the selection of the
sketch object as well as the exploitation of the beautiful aspects of that object. In
general, sketches for decorative materials are often inclined to exploit the beauty of
the appearance, and rhythmic rhythm of the image to show the beauty of the object.
And sketches to make easel paintings are often biased towards the emotional quality
and vibration of the subject. However, it should also be remembered that there is no
absolute boundary between these two types of sketches.
4. Things to keep in mind when sketching flowers and leaves as
decorative materials.
Decorative painters have their own creative goals and their own difficulties. The
basic exercise is to go to the final stage of the goal of creating decorative works with
4. materials: it can be suitable for printing technology, textile technology, or metal and
ceramic processing technology. , porcelain, glass.
Therefore, when taking documents, not only can the artist's interesting emotions be
drawn to the object, but mainly to record the beauty of the structure, quality, rhythm,
and rhythm of the object. Only then will there be a basis for stylization and aesthetic
enhancement in accordance with the material shown.
A specific example: We draw a sketch of bamboo for decoration, we should not
sketch with dotted lines like a Chinese painting, but must draw carefully, studying
and drawing to exploit the beauty emanating from the original. bamboo with roots,
from bamboo stalks to longitudinal fibers along with bamboo eyes like rhythms in
music. Then the slender bamboo branches zigzag, along with the bunches of long
and intertwined leaves that spread out like hands. Drawing from petioles, and leaf
fibers onwards to exploit the beauty of its structure, of course, we do not draw a
whole bamboo bush like that, but criticize each part and draw it carefully until it is
absorbed. Stylized, composing, we will have a smooth visual quality, very real,
although very different from reality.
In addition, we must remember, nature is always the master of richness in creating
the beauty of all species. Sketching attentively and passionately is that we are
learning that creative copy!
5. 5. How to draw animals correctly and vividly?
Floral sketches are relatively static animal sketches. And animal sketches are
dynamic. It is very difficult, of course, to draw dynamic objects and bring them to life.
To solve that problem, there must be a method. First of all, you don't have to draw
fully to express the vividness. When celebrities died, it was common in Europe to
plaster their faces or hands. Although very correct about every detail, it is still a dead
face, a dead hand. The erection of famous statues still has to rely on sculptors.
Other sculptors do not mold like the real thing, but vividly mold the true god that
exudes the spirit of famous people.
So, drawing animals correctly and vividly does not mean thinking about every inch of
them.
The vitality in the picture is the vividness, first of all, the shape, which the painters
often say is to capture the shape. From an aesthetic point of view, the shapes are
the figures expressed in the most typical postures that highlight the child's
characteristics. object in its motion. You have to practice to get that pose. To do so,
before drawing, we should grasp the way of walking, standing, lying, sitting, flying,
jumping, or swimming of the animals we want to sketch. Compare animals with
similar structures such as cows, horses, goats, pigs ... or chickens, geese, geese,...
Together to see where the basic difference is, in terms of shape, and appearance,
then we have to feel the substance from which the character of each animal
emerges. For example, a Chau has horns bigger than an ox, elbow joints are coarser
than an ox, slow, full of peaks, and more superficial than an ox. One can even feel
that the pearl is more honest, more loyal than the cow,
