Painted Collage
This project is the last piece of our color and painting unit.
This project is the last piece of our color and painting unit.
We started with the color value scale, which involved adding white and black to a primary color and then mixing two primaries to create a secondary color and then doing the same with the secondary color.

Following that we worked on mixing tertiary or intermediate colors from the primaries and secondaries then creating a design incorporating previously learned elements and principles of art. In this project we created all colors on the traditional color wheel plus multiple tints and shades of each.

The last piece is to use our newly acquired color mixing and paint application skills to reproduce a collage that you will create (inspired by contemporary and/or historical art movements and makers). The emphasis here is on observational color matching (mixing colors to match the colors that you see) and applying the paint to correctly interpret the a variety of photographic textures. Remember that his is an interpretation. It is not meant to be a photorealistic painting; such an expectation would be unrealistic given your experience level.

UNDERSTANDINGS
UNDERSTANDINGS
From the primary colors paint can be mixed to match an infinite number of observed colors and values
Paint can be applied in different ways to mimic or represent a variety of textures.
EXPECTATIONS
EXPECTATIONS
Students will create an original collage inspired by Dadaist Photo Montage, Surrealism, Suprematism or Contemporary collage artists and then reproduce it in paint. The focus of the painting is to observe and match color and texture demonstrating acquired skill development in acrylic paint mixing and application
This will be a two-week project. DUE or depending on which day you have class.
