WEEK #2
Remember: there are two art-creation choices!
(for all images, and fun links to activities, and a video, go to Mrs. McKeon's site now.) OVERVIEW & PURPOSE Hello Again, 4th Grade! I hope you had some fun with the Color Review you have had for the past couple of days. This next week’s theme is Texture! You will have two choices. I have linked some fun texture explore images (including some from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and some really wild contemporary artist sneaker art) and some lesson videos on the Foster Art Website. The purpose is to review texture in a fun way, and to give you some choices in how you create your art. You are not required to do this at all, but I tried to offer you some fun activities. If you have questions, please ask your parents to email me. I’d love to hear from you! I am the art teacher at Foster, Mrs. McKeon [email protected] They can also email your regular art teacher if they prefer. OBJECTIVES TEXTURE! Fourth Grade Students continue to explore Texture, then create a textured piece of art based on the 2 choices which are outlined below:
Explore one piece of art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art #MetKids site Watch the “How To” video, then create a textured foil relief. MATERIALS (find these AFTER you Choose Choice 1 and after you watch the how to video)
Looking around you, and at art, can inspire you in your own art creations. The first photos you see on the linked website page are objects I found around my house. Do you see interesting textures in your home that inspire you? Artists also look at art for inspiration. On the linked website page I’ve linked images (and some fun “walk arounds”) to the Metropolitan Museum of Art #MetKids site. Each of those pieces of art has a lot of texture. Choose one piece of art that I linked to; explore it to see the texture. You will then view the “how to” video and create your own relief texture art with foil and cardboard. There is also an additional “texture example sheet” if you need more ideas for texture. ACTIVITY: Please look on the linked page to see the First activity, and instructions will be there. Texture Explore at Home; Grade 4 Art At Home Choice 2: Explore texture through Sneaker Art, then Design a Sneaker Using Lots of Texture MATERIALS
Have fun with this! If you want, take a photograph of your texture art, we would love to see it!! If you have questions, your parents can email me: [email protected] or your usual art teacher. - Mrs. McKeon |
