🍎Criterion B: Developing Skills
🍎Criterion B: Developing Skills
Students develop their artistic ideas to a point of realization by applying their skill and techniques. Students make final commitments to their artwork by presenting it to audiences.
Value- the lightness or darkness of a color
Chiaroscuro is an Italian term that translates to mean light and dark.
chiaro, “light”
scuro, “dark”
Chiaroscuro specifically refers to a gradual transition of values used to achieve the illusion of how light and shadow interact on 3D forms (real objects.)
Leonardo da Vinci pioneered this technique during the Italian Renaissance in the late 15th century.
Early chiaroscuro drawings were done on toned paper, with one light chalk (such as white) and one dark chalk (such as dark red, sepia, or charcoal).
Many artists after Leonardo made effective use of this technique, but one of the most notable among them is Rembrandt.
TIP: You MUST know where your LIGHT SOURCE is coming from in order to shade effectively!

Mixed-Media Drawing & Collage Project
Mixed-Media Drawing & Collage Project
Project Objective: Create a mixed media realistic drawing of a group of 3-4 objects with FULL shading. Use good drawing observation skills to draw the still life accurately then render with FULL shading using the designated media below. Include all 5 Elements of Shading where applicable.
Mixed-media mediums to include:
Pastels or Colored Pencils on Newspaper
Charcoal & white charcoal on Brown Paper
White Charcoal on Black Paper
Drawing Pencils on White Paper
Instructions:
Instructions:
Prepare surface one class in advance: students collage a scrap of newspaper, a piece of black charcoal paper, and a scrap of brown craft paper onto a larger white sheet of drawing paper 12×18″.
Choose 3-4 objects to draw from the still life boxes. No more than two can be fruit (only 1 simple fruit), the rest must be objects. Arrange the still life in an interesting composition on white paper with a spot light.
Use your iPad to take pictures of the composition. Crop in closely to the arrangement & make sure we can see highlights & shadows.
Draw out your composition onto your prepared paper using a 2h drawing pencil. Draw it so that it crosses over all of the different papers-make it go off the page if you have to. Make sure your drawing is as accurate as you can draw!
In each of the different papers, use the designated mediums to render the drawing with FULL shading.
When completely finished, LIGHTLY spray drawing with hair spray to “fix” the charcoal & pastels to the paper.
🍎Criterion D: Responding
🍎Criterion D: Responding
Students respond to their world, to their own art and to the art of others. Students must make connections and transfer learning to new settings. Through reflecting on their artistic intention and the impact of their work on an audience and on themselves, students become more aware of their own artistic development and the role that arts play in their lives and in the world. Students learn that the arts may initiate as well as respond to change.
