Art Polyprint project Angie Mitchell Ernst Haeckel- Nature relief polyprint fabric wall hanging

(0)
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 all ages - showing how one can use found objects and recycle them to make creative designs. It is to inspire students to design a dress/ costume and to then find re-cycled materials to use. There is also a page of techniques- showing how to use plastics and fuse these with string, threads and to add in wax, pastels drawings. There are outcomes as well with the result of making the plastic fusion. Some good examples of innovative designers and how they have used materials to make dresses. This is good for GCSE for those students who want to make dresses or for a project on recycling and fashion.

Thirdly students then collage into the monoprint and use Paolozzi as an artist and collage into the monoprint. In this powerpoint the student use one of their photographs and draw into the photocopy. Students look at the artist Chila Burman and look at the way she interprets her Asian and British identity. Students need to think about their own identity and the way they are going to collage into their own photo-copy. Students use felt tips and draw into the photocopies making patterns and try to interpret cultural patterns in bright colours. Your Learning Objective was: To study an example of CHILA BURMAN n your book and describe what you see Students to find out about CHILA BURMAN and begin to understand her Asian and British identity. Students to use their photograph and develop the bright colours and cultural identity in the portrait. To use cultural patterns and to create a self identity photo portrait.

This tasks help to assess abilities and specific skills in Art. This helps to establish a Baseline Assessment for Art after having completed all these exercises. This should take 10-12 lessons. Please work through each exercise carefully. The aim of this diagnostic assessment is to look at specific skills used in art. This diagnostic study is to try to assess different skills in Art. The tasks given are for the different learning/skills in art and it allows the pupils to explore these. There are tasks given for each area of learning. Areas of learning with task: ILLUSIONISTIC learner: draw illusionistically, blind drawing and upside down drawing exercises. CARTOGRAPHIC learner: draw a personal logo (black and white pattern)(use on art books as a name tag). TACTILE learner: Looking at Van Gogh, Gustav Klimt, Chris Ofili and Hundertwasser’ portrait works, their use of lines, shapes, colours and textures. Pupils will choose one of these artists to develop in a tactile way using re-cycled materials. SPATIAL learner: drawing with wire and string, assess whether good at sculptural form. Furthermore, assess the students ability to write ANALYTICALLY and to critically analyse a painting… The pupils will also need to self assess and evaluate their outcomes. At the end of this exercise we would be able to assess pupils strengths and weaknesses in art at KS 3 and there are many opportunities in the presentation for evaluation. How to create an illusionistic space and to draw from first hand observation using blind drawing skills, contour line drawing, upside-down drawing and mark-making. Focus on how to shade using dark and light tones with pencil and biro pens and focus on mark-making. 3 a To critically analyse other artist’s styles and techniques and select and question critically, making reasoned choices when developing work from observation. 3 b. Explore tactile qualities and select a range of materials to interpret a style of an artist. Develop a portrait using tactile materials. Investigate how to express ideas using design skills and design processes and the formal elements like line, colour and flat shapes with patterns Exploring drawing with a 3D structure and looking at shape and line with construction of wire developing spatial recognition. Analysing an artwork and investigating the formal elements used in an artwork. Reflect on and evaluate one’s own and others’ work, adapting and refining the outcomes. Presentation should also be assessed at the end of these exercises. Students should also always write a heading and the lesson objective clearly at the top of each page. There are clear evaluation sheets and assessment opportunities in the unit of work. All tasks are presented with Lesson Objective and clear practical tasks.
