7th Grade Art
  • Movement Assignment
    • Movement Slides: Take 10 minutes and create a thumbnail sketch of each image. Goal is to try and capture the movement you see in them.
    • Google "Principle of Design Movement" and spend 10 minutes taking notes on what it is and how to create it.
    • The rest of class create a more careful drawing that demonstrates movement. 
    • Unity Slides and assignment
      1. Google Definition of "Element of Art Unity" and write down definition
      2. Complete 10 Unity Thumbnail sketches (start with the ones in the Slides and then google image search for the rest)
      3. Complete a Unity Drawing - expectation is to be working on this until the end of class, not expecting it to be complete but do expect to see good quality and quantity of work for time given. Click Here for a video that shows you how to make one or you can make a design on your own. 
      4. Upload images to the assignment in Canvas the last 5 minutes of class.
