Looking at the work of Peter Blake- there is a page of information and questions on his work. There are examples of his alphabet artworks and cover designs for Famous Music artists. Students are inspired by his work of collage, photography and free drawing style. Task 1. Students make their own Pop art alphabet style and this links to Graphics and students can look at Pop art letter styles. Task 2 Students are asked to find their own popular things linked to each letter of the alphabet. Students are asked to make their own alphabet using the similar ideas as Peter Blake, but to focus on trying to create a favourite thing for each of letter of the alphabet. Students then put these ideas on an A4 or A3 paper. There are examples of different alphabets and student examples of final outcome. Task 4 Students play with letters and take one letter and make this in various different designs This is a Graphics exercise and students learn to play with one letter and styles. Task 3 Students put a collage together in the style of Peter Blake. Students should use lettering/ graphics and link this to their own favourite things and then make a collage of this in a 26cm square shape. students can use pictures from magazines , comics and newspaper and cut out and collage. Task 5 Students should creatively now make their own album design. There are formats for the CD covers to use as a template. Presentation gives examples for inspiration of Peter Blake’s alphabet designs and album covers and looks at some of his famous Album cover designs. Students need to make their own CD cover of their favourite musician. Students to use a variety of media for final task.

This is a project to present the work of William Morris in a sketchbook. focusing on lettering in the Arts and Crafts style, it also shows how to do an artist critical study and can be used at KS3 and GCSE. Success Criteria Make an elaborate heading for William Morris showing his emphasis on NATURE Creatively present the pictures on his work Answer the questions with full sentences describing the characteristics of William Morris. Copy a detail of his work. THE POWERPOINT SHOWS how to make a small frame try to draw an enlarge a part of an image of William Morris, that is, crop a section and draw what you see in a box on your page. (The measurements for the box is 10x12 cm and it can be Portrait or Landscape). The overall objectives are : To understand what the elements of art are: line, shape, colour, texture, space, value and tone.This lesson you will be completing an artist study presentation on the work of William Morris and answering the questions and making a critical analysis of his work. We will be presenting examples of William Morris’s work and making a decorative presentation using the word William Morris for a title and presenting this creatively.

A detailed project looking at developing a Still-life project looking at composition, rule of thirds, different techniques for each object with different art styles. Students firstly, study what is a Still-life and write up a definition for this. Students then look at what different styles in Art before Modern Art. Students look in detail at Dutch Still life and the Vanitas still-life. There is also some information on the Post Impressionist artist Paul Cezanne and his style of brushwork. A focus on what is still life?, then looking at Pop Art and what is pop Art? Students then answer questions on two Pop Artists: Michael Craig Martin and Patrick Caulfield. Students practise making a background on Pop Art in their sketchbook and answer the questions. Students develop their own Still-life and are told to bring in objects for their Surreal mixed media Still-life and their are examples of this. Students learn to compose a layout for their still-life final using a Viewfinder and the rules of third, Fibonnacci rule to help them construct a composition. Students develop their own Still-life and are told to bring in objects for their final arrangement. The emphasis is then to take them through different techniques with each object they brought to class. The techniques included in the project are: Wax and Scratch, Paper collage, Pop Art hard edge colours and outlines, Palette knife painting, Pencil shading and Pen drawing. There are finally student examples of final outcomes for this project to support the outcome.

This is a project for A-level students starting with looking at Geometric Abstraction and the use of the colour ‘White’ in the work of modern abstract artists. This will help students to develop their own personal theme. This is a good starting theme for A-level students or IB students and gives them a process or idea to start with in order to develop their own personal outcome. It gives some examples to prompt the students to start thinking of: What is Abstraction, Conceptual Art, Cubism Abstraction and Geometric Art? Students are asked to research various artists who show Geometric abstraction and ‘white’ from the Islamic artists to Kasimer Malevich (Suprematism), Wassily Kandinsky and Piet Mondrian. The project continues giving the A-level students some practical tasks to develop the idea of how to paint a ‘white’ object. There are also examples of some contemporary artists who use geometric abstract shapes and abstraction in nature. Students should be asked to find their own artists they like who use Geometric abstraction and white. Students then explore artists who have used white and look at how they use white in a textural way. Students can look at Robert Rauschenberg. Ben Nicholson and Barbara Hepworth. Students choose one artist and make a booklet exploring their analysis of the artists and the way they use white, but also an experimental booklet showing how to show ‘white’ textual surfaces. Students also take photographs of objects which are ‘white’ to develop further using different media and then subsequently to develop their own final piece based on their own personal research into the subject ’ white’ and ‘geometric abstraction’. Examples of student’s work is given to help students explore various media to develop their own personal ‘white’ outcome. There are also examples of final pieces of A-level students who tried to paint something white showing how they used pastel colours in their finals to develop their outcomes.

Students in Cubism No. 2 have made a collage of a celebrity and in this powerpoint students begin to paint this in the style of the analytical cubist artists. Students use a limited colour scheme like the Cubists and choose two complementary colours. Students are shown how these colours cancel each other and how to create interesting colours through mixing thse colours and adding white and black. There are examples of various complementary outcomes and students are given key terms to use in relation to colour. Degraded colours, tint, shade,…

This is a short project for students to take a photograph of a doodle they do and where they combine it with an object. Students look at the artist Vincent Bal and there are video links to his Shadowology work. Students are then asked to make up their own version of this by taking an object in their house and then turning this into a picture by combining this object with a doodle. There are some short questions to answer on the work of Vincent Bal.

A Still-life project basic one page 5 min scheme with Dirt and Weekly plan. See the Still-life project on TES.

Evaluation This powerpoint is about drawing in charcoal and white chalk on black paper. Students collage a black piece of paper on their paper and then draw a part of their still-life using this technique. The overall Learning Objectives are: To develop my understanding of Art and pre-modern art and the meaning of a Still-life drawing. To develop my observational drawing skills. To create a Still-life drawing learning to draw carefully from observation with a viewfinder To learn how to compose a composition using the rule of thirds and developing an understanding of the Golden Mean AND COMPOSITION PRINCIPLES To develop a further understanding of Pop Art and do a flat colour paper shape detail in your drawing. To develop my knowledge of the elements of art: lines, shape and form To develop techniques in different media in my drawing and to explore markmaking of pen, pencil, oil pastel and charcoal. To practise my observational drawing skills in the following techniques: oil pastel, drawing with a bro pen, using chalk and charcoal To develop my knowledge of Robert Raushenberg (Pop Art) and practise drawing over a light printed surface with pencil. 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

Attached are three powerpoints for developing a KS3 Collage in Fabric on the 12 Days of Xmas and the artist Aminah Robinson. Students use the ‘resources’ powerpoint to draw ideas to make up their own design for the 12 days of Xmas. Class divided and each child gets a different day to design. I used Black velvet fabric as my backing fabric and each time the student did their drawing I traced this onto different coloured fabric shapes and students then cut this out and pritt sticked this onto the black velvet fabric. see powerpoint of song '12 days of xmas ’ for resources see powerpoint Artist interpretation and learning about different fabric artists. see powerpoint on stitchung techniques Thirdly, students then cut their designs out in fabric - I used transfer receipt like paper so students could trace onto the fabric and then cut out. Finally students then embellish their fabric with different stitches and I have a powerpoint with video links on how to do the different stitches: running stitch, blanket stitch, satin stitch, chain stitch and daisy stitch…

Students are developing an understanding of tonal values and 3D forms and looking at markmaking, and a range of tones and depth of tones. • Students reflect on what is a shape, and how to turn this into a 3D form and look at ways to do this with some key vocabulary terms. • Develop an understanding of how to use charcoal and chalk. • Students on a planning sheet will need to develop their mark making skills to enable them to shade using tones and students will look at various ways to use line techniques to create tone: stippling, hatching, cross hatching, scumbling, contour hatching. • Students then will look at the lighting of a 3 D form and how the shadow is thrown. • Students will practice a tonal range on a geometric shape. Students will then work in a group and each student to draw a geometric shape which can be put together into the fantasy figure composition based on the Surrealism Picasso figures. Examples given of the geometric standing figures of Picasso, De Chirico and Desmond Morris. Students follow the powerpoint using chalk and charcoal and explore mark making techniques to start. Then students look at the tonal contrasts and begin to develop a geometric shape. Each child to do a different geometric shape and in so doing build a figure of the shapes. Reflection and Evaluation Activate Prior Knowledge: Students to complete the questions on slide 2 on a large A2 sheet on what they know about a shape/form/3d. Questions on powerpoint/sheet per child. Ask students to come to the board to write down the answers. Ask students about charcoal and get them to explore mark-making on large sheet. Understand how to use charcoal and chalk. Playfully begin to develop their use of line (mark-making) and tone (contrasts and lighting) by using the chalks and charcoal. To follow teacher demonstration on the large A1 sugar paper. Draw out the surrealism fantasy stick figure composition made up of geometric shapes and then each child will begin to start shading their form. Final Evaluation: What is creative about the work on Show? How can we improve any of the work on Show? Who has excelled in their work today? And Why? If we had to evaluate the outcome – what work shows creativity, imagination and, an attempt to truly achieve success in outcome today?. Dismiss class

This is a project about design and can be used to gain a deeper understamding how positive and negative shapes work. This is about black and white designs using the Notan technique. This is the balancing of light and dark shapes using a Japanese idea of design. What is Notan? is the first part of poweerpoint where students develop an understanding of how to use light and dark shapes. Activity Objective: To make Notan compositions and learn about balancing light and dark shapes to make a composition. Looking at Design artists who use Notan: Marimeko, Escher, William Morris To understand what is the meaning of ‘NOTAN’ and art termsTo develop your own Notan design in your bookTo understand how various designers use the concept of Notan in their work. Task 1 USING A SQUARE OF COLOURED PAPER or black paper to start 2.DRAW shapes in from the edges of each side of the square. Draw in from edges 3.CUT OUT SHAPES FROM THE EDGES AND PASTE IN A MIRROR REFLECTION Task 2 Try add a second layer of shapes in your design into the mirror reflection and reflect this back into design Watch the video clip from 0.5 - see link in powerpoint Terms in Art to define Symmetrical Asymmetrical Notan Balance Harmony Positive and Negative shapes

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.

A history of art powerpoint showing key sculptural examples from the early Paleolithic sculpture to the work of Michelangelo showing all the key developments in form to show more realism. There are lots of notes to provoke discussion in the class on the different sculptures. Various comparative tasks can be given to develop students ability to analyse the sculptural forms. This also tells the story of art and the development of sculptural form in Art and how art develops through the ages from Paleleolithic, Egyptian, Greek - Archaic, Classical, Hellenistic Art and Gothic Art following with Early Renaissance and the work of Donatello to the work of Michelangelo in Late Renaissance. Students learn about key sculptures to develop their knowledge of art and begin to understand how sculptural form developed. There is a beginning of understanding how the first sculpture was a small fertility form - the Venus of Willendorf and how this was used to empower people and how this then develops to capture the emotion and pathos in the work of Mary Magdalene by Donatello. Many comparisons can be drawn and it enables students to see the development of form and so understand the history of art.

This is a set of Three Key Stage summary sheets with evaluation sheets for all the projects. It sets out the project details - three projects per year group. year 7, year 8 and year 9: Year 7 Unit 1. Diagnostic- Styles Construction Unit 2. Hundertwasser Clay tile Unit 3. Modern Movements-mixed media Year 8 Unit 1. Go – Wild fabric Unit 2. Drawing and mod-roc Unit 3 Paper coiling and Zentangle design Year 9 Unit 1. Portrait Unit 2. Surrealism Unit 3. Painting Each slide describes the skills in each project and helps with students making a final evaluation of their work and target setting. Some of these topics are presented in other powerpoints of mine on TES.

Making something out of the resources you have at home. This gives a visual list of resources you can use at home to draw with, paint with and make 3D forms with. Good for GCSE students and above for they need to explore a number of techniques for assessment objective. There are videos to motivate and to demonstrte and there are examples of different types of art you can do. Think of some ideas for making art out of cardboard, recycled containers, toilet rolls, toilet paper, old books, magazines, old clothes, wool, ear buds, toothpicks, straws, stones/plants. It also suggests you could also on your phone make a piece of artwork using a photo and an app or draw on your phone. This is to inspire and students to decide what you are going to make…….

In this powerpoint there are key objectives: To use photographs of your school building and change them to emulate artists/photographers who show decay. To learn how to crinkle the picture up to show paper creases To blend in pictures of decay and textures into a school building photograph in the style of the artist. There is a clear definition for decay and students can use this to start there project. There are slides of a number of photographers to use for this theme and then examples of how to use Adobe Photoshop with steps to show progress in building your own outcome. The photographers are Cedric Wilson, Serj Fedulov, Paul Stokinger,Stikki Peaches, Martino Zegwaard and Armita Raafat. Students can use these photographers and there are steps to show how to achieve these effects on Adobe photoshop used by the photographers There is also a clear example on how to do an analysis of a photographer in your sketchbook To start with there is a recap on composition - how to take a photo and a reminder of the 4 Key objectives used in Photography and an explanation of what key objectives this meets. This powerpoint focuses on the assessment objective 'Develop ideas" from photographers and then how to " Explore" Adobe photoshop techniques to develop your Decay theme.
