Triptych - The Meaning of 3 of Us in One Element and More


The Triptych






 Students need to work together towards one tell,
one element of unity, and 3 in one composition.
So the viewer looks from one panel to the next,
in order to come to terms with how the art speaks to them and
 how they can appreciate three different artworks in one composition.




The colors of the three pieces of art keep the artwork interesting. 

Students can alter the colors and transition within each of the pieces

during the making of the art







This way students are to:

Use an overhead projector, to outline the contour of their head/face (Siluet)

over poster papers (420mm x  297mm.)

Students write about their likes, challenges, happiness, or own events.
 
What makes one unique and amazing.

Looking closer at the story they choose meaningful colors 
 
To then use the elements as lines or shapes permitting the expression of feelings

or meanings.

Students make connections using color, lines, shapes, and repetition to help and 

unified the design. 

Making connections create a way, and direction beginning and 

ending of their story.

Digital Imagery - Color and Form (Using Photoshop Suit)

Digital Imagery With the help of Digital Cameras  and Photoshop Suit,  my students create great art pieces, demonstrating excellent use  of the program and using to the max the photos  taken with a very regular camera.  We are looking at:   Direccion   Depth   Repetition   Contrast   Form   Color   Use of the Space Students are to be aware and understand:   Pixels (pictures elements)   Color Gradation   RGB   Dimensions (expressed by pixels)   Resolution (PPI - Printing good) Students study and applied depth - perceiving these depths through shapes in order to keep viewers vision active. Seeing means grasping some outstanding features of objects, like; the color of the sky, the curve of the long tree, the rectangularity of the object to the right, and so on.  Depth comes from the correct use of the Principals of Art and Design.

Learning Color with The Masters - The Opposite or Complementary Colors

Applying one Layer at the time Color by color and layer by layer students craft their work. My student chooses a work from the Masters of the Impressionism and it will go this way: 1. The student prepares the canvas using Gesso to seal and prime the canvas before the oil is applied. The gesso should be tone down, this way the canvas doesn't lose its texture and the oil will run smooth. Also will protect the canvas from deterioration, the oil will ruin the canvas quite fast if has not been prime. 2. The student draws the artwork carefully, soft lines divide each color and each object, students are not allowed to use a grid, they only find the middle point by drawing an "X"  across the canvas than the drawing. It is very important to learn to look closer, to see the distance and locations correctly, to conquered and own the space and what lives in it.  3. Look closer to the color wheel, Student look with caution the colors making note of how ma...
