Section 1: You must be familiar with the Basic Elements of Art: SCuLPTT

             

          SHAPE                   COLOUR                    LINE                 PATTERN                    TONE                           TEXTURE

 

You will have to know each word and illustrate each with an image.

 

Section 2: You must be familiar with the creative process;  RED-P  

 

               RECORD - EXPERIMENT - DEVELOP - PRESENTATION

 

You will need to give 3 examples of what you can do in each phase of the creative process.

 

In the RECORDING phase you could, for example.

make an observational drawing         paint an image     take a photograph      collage an image       write a description                   make a montage              make a print           copy an artist's work        make a doodle     draw from your imagination

                           

In the EXPERIMENTING phase you could, for example:    

rip up a drawing and paste it back together            make an image on an unusual support

draw using your weaker hand                                      try blending two materials together

make an image on an unusual format e.g.  a circle          make a close up image of part of an original study      

 

In the DEVELOPMENT phase you could, for example.

Make a series of the same image using different materials          Join two of your studies to make a new composition

Make a new version of one of your studies using bright colours                      Add a decorative background

Make several compositional studies of the same idea                         Make a series of increasingly complex prints        

 

In the PRESENTATION phase you should choose your most successful study and, for example;

make a larger version                                      make a version using a range of materials, handled skilfully

make a more detailed version                          paint the image extremely neatly

master the shading in a drawing                      successfully use overlapping layers

 

You will have to understand the term COMPOSITION

 

It means: "the placement or arrangement of visual elements or ingredients in a work of art. It can be thought of as the organisation of the elements of art. It can mean 'putting together’ and is often used interchangeably with various terms such as design, form, visual ordering, or formal structure,

 

Section 3: Recording. You will be asked to draw your hand from observation using a full range of shading.

 

Section 4: You will develop your drawing into a plan for a composition that includes a hand/hands

 

  Section 5; You will have to remember the artists you have studied this year and describe their work
