This guide has been produced on Publisher and is a double sided A4 document which can be folded into a pamphlet. The guide has been made to support A Level students with their artist research and in particular, encourages them to be more independent learners and to also investigate a range of sources such as books, blogs, art galleries and TV programmes. There is a list of local galleries on the document (based in Bedfordshire, UK) but this section could be adapted to accommodate the museums and galleries in your school's local area. I have previously handed these out to students and I also have one on display in my classroom. This resource could also be suitable for higher ability GCSE art students.

This download consists of six artist related, printable A4 word searches. Each word search has a black and white copy and an artist illustrated copy, as well as a word bank to help students find all of the available words. Could be used as a lesson starter / do it now task, or as part of a cover lesson. Artists Included: Banksy Frida-Kahlo Henri-Matisse Lichtenstein Picasso Van-Gogh If you’re looking for other stand alone resources, then I also have a Dean Russo drawing activity.

This lesson was designed for a year 9 class to introduce the concept of Abstraction. There is an introduction with background and definition and then two artists looked at in more detail: Piet Mondrian and Beatriz Milhazes. There are opportunities for discussion of ideas throughout and students are asked key questions. The presentation finishes by setting a homework task where students research one of the artists and present a page in their sketchbooks. There is a template provided to guide students in producing high quality artist research and two student examples. (slides 29 to 34 can be printed as a '6 slide to a page handout' and photocopied for students to follow) There is a short quiz mid way through the presentation - and a slide at the end which can be printed as a differentiated version of the quiz for individual students. Also at the end is a page of links to helpful web resources which support the lesson. There is a link to a 5 minute video on Milhazes in the presentation which provided interesting context. I have found that this lesson is unusually wordy but that students respond very well to the concepts and seem to really enjoy looking at these artists in more detail - I have received some excellent homework from this lesson!
