Grade ten students reviewed the course description and discussed ideas for the coming year. We will be focusing our attention on the Modern period 1800 -2011. Since, according to Henri Matisse, “all art is based on other art” we will reference art from other periods when needed. We will be using a primary on line reference http://www.theartstory.com/ .
We started our first studio exercise Friday, a tonal rendering of a still life of popcorn. This will be an opportunity for students to further develop their skills with a pencil.
Next week we will finish this exercise and continue our review of the five perceptual skills of drawing.
