Final Project Description: Due Last Day of Class Feb 23rd

NO CLASS WEDNESDAY , FEB 11 or MONDAY, FEB 16


Due Next Class, February 18th:

1.Five Bristol Board sheets painted in your five chosen colors
2. A good start on your first composition



 Final Project: 5 Colors, 3 Variations

For our final project, will will use the Matisse’s painted paper collage technique to create three compositions that explore:

visual rhythm

asymmetrical balance

The compositions can use imagery or be abstract. They can use shapes repeated through the use of templates or not.

 You will only use 5 colors (plus white). These same 5 colors will be used across the three compositions.

HW: Time as Change Collage

Divide up a sheet of bristol board in any number and any size compositions

(at least 4, up to as many as will fit on the page)

examples: 

Using one or more templates, trace and cut out shapes from your painted value sheets, to create similar compositions that have progressive changes

to suggest the illusion of motion and the passage of time.

-think about how each composition can suggest motion

-think about how changes between compositions can suggest the passage of time, through changing value, shape, placement, rotation, etc.

-you can use imagery, as long as your shapes are template-based and your “narrative” is told through formal changes.
