ART I & II-Period 5 (2023-2024)

The following Element of Art: TEXTURE Worksheet is attached below to help introduce textures in art by reviewing new vocabulary terms in relation to how artists create and use texture in works of art. An example is posted below for guidance. You may draw, use magazines cut outs, take photos, or even illustrate this worksheet digitally. You are to use our class textbooks for the bottom half portion for research on artists. You need to pick a work of art that illustrates the element of texture and write about it. Our class textbooks are posted under "Class Materials" here, in Google Classroom.

The following assignment is about how artists illustrate IMPLIED TEXTURE through the technique of rubbing over surfaces (also known as Frottage). You are to use a piece of regular white copy paper to rub over surfaces to complete 8 different implied textures. For example, you may use a colored pencil, crayon, or graphite pencil to rub over a brick wall to create a texture on your paper. Another example would be to rub the bottom of your shoe. First, fold your paper "hot dog" style, then fold a second, and then a third time until you have 8 sections on your paper. The following .pdf's attached below are examples provided for you as reference to what is expected for the assignment. Once you've completed rubbing 8 different textures for each section you are to label each. This assignment is worth 10 points and is due at the end of class.

The following assignment is regarding painting with watercolors to create IMPLIED TEXTURES. During class we went over various ways that you can create different textures by painting with watercolors. The Basic 4 Watercolor Techniques are: Wet-on-wet, wet-on-dry, dry-on-dry, and dry-on-wet.You are to complete this activity on a page in your sketchbook. Other watercolor techniques include using the common tools of: Table salt · Masking Fluid (RESIST TECHNIQUE) · Paper Clip and/or Sewing Needle (SGRAFFITO TECHNIQUE) · Rubbing Alcohol · Resist Crayon (RESIST TECHNIQUE) · Straw (SPLATTERING TECHNIQUE) · Rice  and · Paper Towel/Cotton Ball (LIFTING TECHNIQUE). You are to first section off your page into 8 different areas with masking tape. Then, you need to complete at least 8 different ways that you learned to create implied textures painting with watercolors. You may view the videos attached below if you would like to try other different techniques than the ones we did in class. Once you've completed 8 of your painting techniques, please let all your paint dry and then SLOWLY peel back your tape. You will then need to label each technique that you chose to illustrate. This assignment is worth 10 points and is due at the end of class.

The following examples below are of how artists draw IMPLIED TEXTURES. You are to complete the attached Hand Worksheet by drawing in your sketchbook the various textures that include burlap, bricks, fish scales, wood grain, mirror/window, trees, hair, and a prickly cactus texture. The examples attached below are for you to know what is expected. You may include your own textures as well. There is also a video link below for guidance if you may have any questions on how to start. Once you've completed your hand illustration, please show me your work so I can give you your points. This assignment is worth 10 points and is due by the end of class.
