This is a key stage 3 project where students do a polyprint on fabric using printing inks. This is a short 6 week project but could be developed to incorporate embellishments and sewing skills to fabric. I did this with year 8 and it took 6 weeks. Student enjoyed the outcome and it could have been made into a cushion for each student but we made a class fabric wall hanging. (There is a second Powerpoint in a Bundle which has all the pictures used for students to work from - A-Z of nature pictures) Artists used: Angie Mitchell and Ernst Haeckel Resources required Polyprint blocks Printing ink Rollers Tables to roll out on Fabric square per child Paper for test prints Research sheet for drawings and artist research. Project schedule 6 weeks The resources for the students to work from. Each student chooses what they would like to draw. The steps to take while making the print and examples of student’s outcome. Students begin by researching Angie Mitchell and Ernst Haeckel and make up a sheet with these two artists and their drawings. The drawings they do of one of the pictures of the slide pictures of animals and bits of nature from A-Z. Students choose which animal or fish or plant they would like to draw. Students spend time doing a detailed drawing and design a border pattern for this work in black and white. Success criteria of drawings To use fine lines and to capture quality detail To concentrate on negative and positive shapes To develop a border pattern from nature around the drawing To try to layer up your drawing with foreground and background shapes The students drawings are then photo-copied and transferred to the polyprint block. Students use the photocopy to press through onto polyboard. The students are given a square and a strip of polyprintboard . Students first of all experiment printing on paper with their design and border. Students can do a black and white print or do a polyprint print of two colours overlaying their inks. The slide presentation gives you also opportunities for reflection and evaluation of outcome at the end. I have presented my artists in my book I have compared the works of 2 nature artists I have written a short paragraph on the style of artists I have a careful line drawing of my subject I have created my own artwork based on my research of subject colour I have a plan for my print design and have written about relief printing I have tested working with polyprints Student outcome is a wall-hanging and we sewed all the students outcomes together to make a fabric collage of squares.

This is for your Year 10 GCSE group and gives a summary of the GCSE course in two sheets. It is a very helpful sheet summarising each objective and the requirements and the amount of pages that are needed in your sketchbook. There is also the writing framework required for artist analysis - objective one. There is also a brief outline of the principles of design and what students need to look for. Also there are helpful questions to help students evaluate their outcomes. A must for GCSE Art and Design!!

**Self -Identity portrait project. ** This is lesson 1 where students take their own photo and then start to do a drawing of parts of the face. There are examples of face details and then there is an example of how to scale this up. There is a homework biro drawing task. (In the Bundle there are other lessons to follow up on this drawing of task, where students have to interpret their face in various artist styles and culturally interpret their own identity. ) Lesson objectives Objectives To draw the proportions of the face in your book To do a photo-shoot and take a photo to use for your portrait drawing where you scale up this picture. To consolidate how to draw parts of the face. To do a pencil tonal value To practise mark-making with a pen Through out the whole scheme the project **success criterias **are: To learn about the proportions of the face To practise drawing various parts of the face To draw a portrait drawing using the grid technique To look at various examples of portrait drawings To develop a tonal grid and to understand the light and dark planes in a face. To understand how to do a grid drawing

This is a lesson for self identity project after students complete the scaling up of their face in pencil. Using a photocopy students then do a mono-print of their face and later interpret this into an artist style. There are also some links to You tube clips of different ways to do the mono-print. To do a set of three monoprints using one’s photograph to draw with To do 1. a line drawing of one’s portrait carefully following the detail of portrait. Use one’s fingers to create some tonal areas To do 2. a line drawing of ones portrait and then in the ghost print to draw into this surface and to print this To do 3 a line drawing of a portrait but to lay a stencil on your ink block before you do the print.

• Learning Objectives To reflect on examples of copies of drawings of different artists and illustrators and analyse the formal elements: shapes, tone, form, lines, texture, and marks. • To investigate and interpret a variety of selected artists and discuss their sense of style and markmaking • To study drawings with reference to their visual literacy and the formal elements (tone, texture, colour, line, form). • To discover the different mark making skills of a number of different artists. • To research, investigate and develop ideas in a personal way on an A2 sheet. To develop a visual work of practical responses with annotations. In this task students are to analyse the drawing styles of particular artists and begin to interpret these different artist’s styles in drawings of their own. Students use the formal elements to analyse the artists and develop drawings using their own subject as a response with annotations. • Students draw the hand/feet or a subject of their choice in particular signatures of a selection of artists. • To reflect on examples of copies of drawings of different artists and illustrators and analyse the formal elements: shapes, tone, form, lines, texture, and marks. • Try to use different drawing techniques as highlighted by the masters. This is a good start to critical contextual analysis and gets students to look at a number of artists and develops their visual analysis skills . Students to end with an A2 or A1 drawing sheet showing their subject in various styles.

In the first part of the powerpoint students are asked to listen to pieces of music and to formulate slogans from them. Students then are asked to do a critical analysis of the work of Banksy by selecting one of his works and answering questions. After this students are asked to copy a picture of Banksy and then make their own collage of his work using magazines and newspapers. The theme of their poster is on the pandemic. We will be learning: To create a poster collage in the style of Banksy that describes the pandemic occurring and linking this to the UK To use magazines, newspapers and pictures and to make a collage of these to create a poster. To make a slogan, drawing the lettering or finding letters in magazies or newspaper. Success Criteria Your poster must include the following: A key phrase or work linked to the pandemic Two image that links to what is happening in the UK or something that is key in the NEWS. It should have graffitti style lettering and pencil work Accurate shape outline Good use of negative space Link between font style and theme Clear placements/readable

Students to be given a strip of paper and fold this into 8 sections. On the end two folds students make a front cover. There is a You tube video link to this project. In the six sections in the middle of the fold out paper there are 6 tasks for each of the elements of art. Line, Shape, Colour, Texture, Space and Value. Students on the one side of the fold out write information about the element and on the other side students are to do a drawing of the element as a creative response to each element This is a fun project and the outcomes are successful.

We will be learning about Ben Heine and how he uses Drawings and Photography Complete the questions attached: Heading: Ben Heine Create your own version of Ben Hearn. IDEA 1 DOING A DRAWING IN A PHOTOGRAPH Steps for success Take a photograph and load this up on a Powerpoint. Do a drawing to add to this photograph. Load this up on the powerpoint over the photograph. Remove backgrounds. Look at the examples of Pencil and Camera on slide 2 and 3. You could try make it quirky, personal or relate to your situation. It must not be an exact copy of the photograph but be combined in an original quirky way. You may add in interesting ideas that change the photograph IDEA 2 TAKING A PHOTO GRAPH AND ADDING IN CIRCLES KEYS FOR SUCCESS Take a photograph and DRAW over the photograph all the circles like the examples of Digital Circlism Try to use your own photograph Make it as unique as you can. You could try make it quirky, personal and could relate to your situation.

This is a step by step drawing of a cupcake - showing how to start with basic shapes and then adding in the detail and the shading. This is part of the modern movements project where students make a cake stand with various cup cakes in different art styles linked to modern movements: Expressionism, Neo-Impressionism, Fauvism, Realism, Surrealism. It also has some slides showing how to do some mark-making exercises to build up students ability to control pencil skills and to capture detail. Students can also draw from a picture of a cup-cake or preferably have a real cup-cake in front of them to draw from. Students can also use the grid method to draw a cupcake and there is a picture of this technique to help.

Looking at briefly two chapters of the famous John Berger book ’ Ways of Seeing’ It is difficult to summarise a book of such a wealth of knowledge and such a clever way of phrasing ideas. The slide presentation gives one a sketch of two chapters. Chapter one which discusses the image versus the photo, seeing versus words and there are a few quotes from John Berger but also the link to the You tube clips. This is a good A-level presentation and then to get the students to listen to the first two chapters on video clip. Students need to question how an image has lost its meaning through the advent of the camera and begin to draw a comparison of images before the camera and after the camera. Students should also look at how the way we have reproduced the female form through the ages from Antiquity to the 21st Century and think about the meaning of what it is to be nude and what it is to be naked. John Berger has a lot of ideas on this and there are lots of phrases from his book discussing this concept and showing some examples of this in some major artworks. One can never make justice of this incredible book but the slide show does allow for discussion in the class on important concepts and understandings we have of images in our time.

This is a slide of lots of different images of pictures of portraits and figures. The next slide is of the vocabulary list and words to match with the pictures. Print the pictures out on a sheet of A3 and get students to match the visual and words. This is for any age group and relates to a topic on portraiture.

To explore developing a relief surface of an area of my still -life drawing and develop this in mod roc technique

This is the final part of a series of Still-life lessons where students do drawings in different techniques and then make a mod-roc outcome. In this powerpoint the students go to a computer room and do a presentation on the artist LOUISE NEVELSON and then make a mod-roc outcome. Steps are showing how to make the mod-roc relief and criteria for success with this medium. Students then evaluate their mod-roc outcome by doing a tonal drawing of this and reflect on the outcome Computer room research: Louise Nevelson - students write and answer the questions and resource information on this artist. After making the mod-roc students evaluate their mod-roc outcome and do a drawing of your outcome and as a group discuss how they will as a group present their own work like Louise Nevelson. Learning Objectives: To explore developing a relief surface of an area of my still -life drawing and develop this in mod roc technique To build a mod –roc outcome looking at relief techniques To in a group build your Modroc into a standing tower with the rest of the group. Do a study of the artist Louise Nevelson and present her work by doing an artist study of her work. Complete the project by doing an evaluation of their mod-roc relief sculpture and do a pencil drawing of this

In this powerpoint there is cultural information on the symbolism of the peacock in Indian Art and a look at the peacock dance. Students make a peacock feather drawing looking at a few essential oil pastel techniques: sgrafitto, layering, blending, stippling. Students then are asked to evaluate this outcome and then as a whole class the second project on the powerpoint is that each student is now asked to make a peacock feather which could then be added to a drawing of the body of the peacock. Resources given to support this.This could be completed in any medium, pen work or watercolour or oil pastel. There are examples of different large peacock outcomes in different media and the teacher will need to decide how she would like to do this.

Words for Art and terms used for portraits.

This is one sheet that summarises the main assessment objectives of the GCSE Art and Design course

A fun project for students to learn about the Art Nouveau Artist Gustav Klimt and to do their own interpretation using patterns to make their hair. Students are asked to firstly read about Klimt and to answer questions. Secondly students are asked to practice doing Zentangle patterns and look at the patterns of Klimt Finally students take a photo of themselves or anyone else and paste this in an interesting position on their paper and begin to draw the Gustav Klimt patterns. TASK: Paste a picture of yourself, friend, family member and interpret the patterns of Klimt around the face. Making hair-styles or clothes using Klimt’s patterns. STEPS TO SUCCESS On an A5 paper paste a picture of a person and draw Klimt patterns making a dress or hair around the face. Look at the examples on the sheet. On your paper firstly divide the areas using lines into shapes around the photo of your face/head and begin to do Zentangle patterns in the shapes. Use a pencil or a pen and try to draw light and dark contrasts. Try to make patterns in the shapes. Use the video clip to help with making zentangles.
