LESSON FOR FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 2011
As you know I have taken the NAHS and advanced art students to Barton College to see the N.C. Scholastic Art Exhibit. WCHS was fortunate to have two of the 209 gold keys this year. So while I'm away today this is what I would like for you all to do.
FIRST:
In conclusion of our mandala project I want you to see some awesome mandalas done by an artist named Paul Heussanstamm. Click on the link for his website and gallery of mandalas.
http://www.mandalas.com/CircleMandalasGallery/circlemandalas_gallery.phpFrom this gallery I want you to choose your three favorite mandalas. Write the name of the three that you chose and then write 4 or 5 sentences telling me why you like the three more than the others. (Evaluating)
SECOND:
Next week we will be studying about Egyptian art so as an introduction I want you to go to this website: http://www.pbs.org/empires/egypt/special/hieroglyphs/name_spell.html
This is an interesting site in which you can type your name or any other English words and they will automatically be translated into Egyptian hieroglyphics. I want you to type in your first and last name. You may need to do your first name and then afterward do your last name. On a sheet of paper I want you to copy the symbols in the order that they are in. Copy them as closely as possible. You may draw them from left to right or from top to bottom - it doesn't matter. Next, I want you to finish this sentence...."My dream for the future is ______________________________." Fill in the blank and translate this into hieroglyphics as well. (Creating) I would suggest using three or four words.
Lastly, I want you to do a search online for a "Contemporary Artist", or one who is still living. Look at his/her artwork. Choose your favorite artist, write down his/her name and give me a paragraph as to why you chose this particular artist.
Once you have the symbols drawn and the paragraphs written on your paper, sign your name on it and turn it in to the substitute teacher. She will make sure I get them for Monday.
