Introduction to Watercolor Presentation
Originally presented at LouisiANIME, Becca Hillburn and Heidi Black go over the basics of watercolor materials and techniques. Included several live demonstrations, as well as an opportunity for the audience to play around with the materials supplied.
Starter Activity Ideas-Art Secondary Education
This document provides a list of starter activity ideas for an art lesson, including word searches, YouTube videos, dominoes, jigsaw puzzles, mock talk shows, spot the difference games, anagrams, odd one out activities, hangman, memory games, extending an artwork, step-by-step drawing sheets, exploring elements of art, self and peer assessments, hide and reveal games, and interactive whiteboard games. The activities are meant to engage students at the start of a lesson and relate to the main lesson activity.
Value painting assignments- posterized or monochromatic
These are my value assignments, they are purposefully easy, as they are the first real paintings my students complete. They practice making mixtures of color at different values, projecting images, tracing, using a grid, and free-handing. A good simple first set of assignments that they can choose between.
Still life
A still life is a drawing or painting of objects arranged in a composition. Traditionally, the objects depicted had symbolic meanings representing concepts like life, death, beauty, and decay. Still life paintings use techniques like shading, value scales, and layering of foreground, mid-ground and background elements to create a sense of depth, volume and mass. In the 1800s, artists like Manet and Cezanne enhanced the mood and symbolism of still life works through loose brushwork, textures and manipulated light. Their impressionistic styles influenced later artists to portray the world in a more creative, gestural manner.
Natural forms sculpture project
Here are some key things to include in your observational drawings:
- Draw what you see, not what you think you see. Focus on accurate proportions and shapes.
- Use light and shade to show form. Draw the shadows as darkly as the highlights are light.
- Pay attention to textures. Try different mark-making techniques like cross-hatching to show textures like bark or leaves.
- Draw a variety of natural forms like shells, stones, fruits, flowers or seed pods. Drawing different textures and shapes will give you more ideas for your sculpture.
- Take clear, well-lit photos to use as references if drawing from life is difficult. Photos can also help you capture textures.
Working with watercolor

Oil Pastel Technique
Oil pastels can be used in a variety of techniques including stenciling, blending, impasto, hatching and cross-hatching, parallel brush strokes, using fragmented colors, and scratching. The stencil technique involves using oil pastel as a backdrop covered by an ink wash, watercolor, or diluted acrylic paint, allowing the pastel to show through. Blending involves mixing colors using fingers, stumps, or solvents. Impasto creates thick, dense lines that bring out texture and intensity. Hatching and cross-hatching underline relief and create varied hues and textures.
Assemblage art
The document discusses the art form of assemblage art. It defines assemblage art as a compilation of objects that may seem unrelated but are presented together in an aesthetically intriguing way. The origins of assemblage art can be traced back to the 1950s and artists like Picasso, but it grew in popularity. Key artists discussed include Robert Rauschenberg, Christo and Jeanne-Claude, Jean Dubuffet, and their works that combined everyday objects in creative ways. The document also explores how assemblage art has influenced other forms of art and sculpture over time through its use of found objects and randomness.
Introduction To Portrait Painting Presentation
This document discusses how portrait paintings can convey meaning through facial expressions, posture, color, surroundings, and backgrounds. Artists may use swirling backgrounds to represent how they are feeling, or include more than just a face to provide context. Self-portraits allow artists to celebrate events or talents, and can show the artist from different stages of life. Elements like pose, brushwork, color, and background can reveal an artist's character, mood, beliefs, or talents in their own self-portrait. Various examples of portrait paintings are provided.

The second project encourages experimenting with unconventional tools to create interesting marks and textures. A variety of mediums like ink, paint, and wax are suggested. The third project instructs students to use techniques like side of chalk strokes, twiddling, circles, and cross-hatching to represent texture. Example artists who use mark-making like Joan Mitchell and Jasper Johns are also provided. Students are assigned to complete drawings exploring these techniques by the deadline.
Matisse.Ppt
The document discusses Henri Matisse and his cutout artworks that he created in his old age. It explains that when Matisse was 83 years old and sick, he developed a new technique called "drawing with scissors" where he would cut out shapes from painted paper and arrange them to create compositions. The process involved his assistants painting sheets of paper, Matisse cutting out the shapes, and then pasting them onto other sheets of paper. Some of Matisse's most famous cutout works were for a book called "Jazz." The document emphasizes that although Matisse did this work from his bed due to illness, he continued being creative using his memory for ideas until his death.
Y8 Objects and viewpoints Still life
This document provides instruction for a series of drawing exercises focused on still life and observational drawing techniques. Students are asked to complete drawings of shoes from different perspectives, as well as contour and tonal drawings of everyday objects. Techniques for creating tone like hatching and cross-hatching are demonstrated. Later exercises involve drawing collections of objects in jars from different viewpoints, and replicating the styles of artists like Lichtenstein, Matisse, and Picasso in still life compositions. The document outlines homework assignments incorporating these techniques over a 13 week period.
Portraiture year 7_compressed-1
Here are the key steps to drawing a mouth:
1. Draw a straight or curved guideline for the top and bottom lips.
2. Draw a small circle in the center for the bow of the upper lip.
3. Draw smaller circles above the guideline for the corners of the mouth.
4. Draw curved lines connecting the circles to form the lips.
5. Add definition and shadows inside the mouth opening.
Practice paying attention to the shapes and proportions. Referencing photos can help capture realistic details. Take your time observing and sketching mouths to improve your skills.
Drypoint prinkmaking
Drypoint is a printmaking technique that produces a softer line than etching. The artist scratches an image into a Plexiglass plate with a stylus, forming raised burrs of plexiglass. These burrs hold ink well initially but flatten with each pass through the printing press, limiting the number of high-quality prints that can be pulled from the plate. The document provides instructions for creating drypoint prints, including preparing the plate by drawing on Plexiglass, inking and printing the plate, and properly labeling proofs and editions.
Perspective Lesson Plan-Secondary Education
This art lesson focuses on teaching perspective to 18 pupils. The teacher will introduce one, two, and three point perspective through a PowerPoint presentation. Pupils will then work in groups of 4-5 to create a collage applying these perspective techniques and adding their own imaginative drawings. Finally, the class will discuss what they learned about perspective and how it was applied in their collages. The goals are for pupils to understand different types of perspective and use them creatively in a group project.
Henri matisse---cut-outs---lesson
Henri Matisse was a French artist born in 1869 who worked in drawing, printmaking, sculpture, and painting. He is best known for pioneering a new art form called "paper cutouts" where he used scissors to cut colored paper shapes and arrange them on the wall, which he called "painting with scissors." Later in life as he became confined to a wheelchair, Matisse created some of his most famous works using this cutout technique.
Origami
The document introduces origami, the Japanese art of paper folding. It defines origami, explains that it originated in China but was introduced to Japan, where it developed its own history and was later named "origami" by the famous origami artist Akira Yoshizawa. The summary provides the essential information about what origami is, its origins in China and development in Japan, and how it received its name through the work of Akira Yoshizawa.
2 point perspective
The document provides instructions for drawing in two point perspective. It begins with an overview of what two point perspective is and the benefits of mastering the technique. It then provides some helpful hints for perspective drawing, including using a ruler and pencil, drawing lightly, being patient, and practicing. The main body of the document outlines eight steps to draw a cube in two point perspective, including drawing the horizon line, adding two vanishing points, vertical guidelines, perspective lines, vertical length and width lines, bottom perspective lines, and erasing unnecessary lines. It encourages practicing the technique to draw more cubes and objects in two point perspective.
Chuck Close
Chuck Close is an American artist known for his hyperrealistic portraits created using a gridded technique. He was born in 1940 in Washington and drew influence from abstract expressionists like Jackson Pollock and William De Kooning early in his career. In the late 1960s, Close began creating extremely detailed portraits on a large scale using a grid to meticulously place colors. This process took about a year to complete each piece. In 1988, Close suffered a paralysis but continued painting using a brush strapped to his arm. Throughout his career, he has experimented with different media like photography, tapestries, and mosaics to create his recognizable style of realistic portraits.
History of self portraiture
Artists began creating self-portraits in the 15th century to depict themselves as subjects or important characters in their work. With more accessible mirrors, many painters, sculptors, and printmakers experimented with self-portraiture. Albrecht Dürer was one of the first to systematically create self-portraits at different ages over his lifetime, establishing self-portraiture as an artistic genre. Since then, many other notable artists like Rembrandt, Van Gogh, Frida Kahlo, and Lucian Freud have also used self-portraiture to represent themselves at various stages of their lives.
Types of Drawing
Drawing is an artistic expression that involves marking lines on paper or other materials to visually represent the world. It allows people to express their feelings and create art. There are different types of drawings including sketches, plans, designs, and graphic presentations created using pens, pencils or crayons depending on the purpose. Some common types are life drawings made from direct observation, illustrations that show basic features of objects, cartoons featured in newspapers and magazines, and caricatures that exaggerate structural features of real people.
Observational Drawing skills- contour line hands
Teach students observational drawing skills through the study of hands. By simplifying objects (in this case hands) into simple shapes and lines while comparing height and width, students learn how to draw from observation and not prior knowledge. incorporating the study of contour lines in their hands student then think about design- creating a super cool design int he background! My high school students LOVED this project and this PowerPoint really helped! Enjoy!
Collages Power Point
A collage is a work of art made by assembling different materials such as paper, photographs, or found objects and gluing them to a surface to create a new piece. Collage first emerged as an art form in the early 20th century when artists like Picasso and Braque began incorporating materials into their paintings. There are several types of collages including wood collage using natural wood, decoupage involving placing pictures onto objects, photomontage made from photographs, and digital collage created using computer tools.
Space powerpoint
This document discusses various artistic techniques used to create the illusion of depth and space in two-dimensional artwork. It describes how artists use size, proportion, overlapping objects, atmospheric perspective, foreground/middleground/background, and linear perspective to make objects appear closer or further away. These techniques allow artists to add the dimensions of distance and depth even on a flat surface.
Simple Jig Saw Puzzles - How to make them
1. The document provides instructions for making simple jigsaw puzzles out of plywood.

1) Gather supplies including fabric paint, an image to stencil, brushes, scissors, freezer paper and cardboard.
2) Cut out the stencil image on freezer paper and iron it onto the fabric. This will hold the stencil in place.
3) Paint the fabric, being careful to protect surfaces from paint bleeds. Allow to dry and peel off the freezer paper to reveal the finished stenciled design.

Editor's Notes
- You will have a chance to work with hammers, pliers and nails today to create your very own string art. Once you know the basics you can scale this project to make whatever you can think of! Waivers need to be signed. An adult in your party can sign and list all participants names.
- Your imagination, 20 nails, and 10/15 minutes are the only limiting factors here.
- Depending on your shape you will need to evenly plot your points. Explain how to properly use a ruler and protractor.
- Do we have enough goggles to give away?
