GCSE ART TEXTILES. We can now hand out the GCSE Art Textiles Component 2 papers. This is a FULLY EDITABLE step by step guide to developing a thorough sketchbook. It is a fully editable resource which gives you the power to alter it to meet the requirements of your students. Ideal for teachers who have moved from DT Textiles to Art Textiles. Please note that the theme of the guide is different to the Component 2 questions because we are not allowed to reproduce the questions as this would contravene Ofqual regulations, but you will be able to very quickly edit the resource to link to whichever questions your students want to study. This is a 37 page resource and is print friendly. Suitable for AQA, Edexcel and OCR. We hope that this resource helps get Component 2 underway and cuts your workload.

Moving from DT Textiles to Art Textiles? This 38 page resource guides GCSE Art Textiles students through a component of work. The theme here is Natural Forms and students are encouraged to collect primary source evidence before using a wide range of textiles related techniques in the development of their work. The support document ensures that students address the four Assessment Objectives and are reflective in the way that they progress their work. Students can either use the resource as a work book, adding information to it, or use it as a guide which they (and the teacher) can expand upon. This is a useful support document for DT textiles teachers who have suddenly found themselves having to deliver Art Textiles because DT textiles has been scrapped! Also a great STEAM resource.

This resource provides visual inspiration for the development of seascape paintings. A wide range of photographs show the textures, colours and movement of rough seas. The slideshow then shows a range of paintings produced using a variety of techniques. each painting includes an explanation of how it was produced. All paintings were produced by the author, Mael Matthews. This resource could provide inspiration for students of all ages. The main message is that where painting is concerned, the only rule is that there are no rules! The resource also includes Mael's Twitter handle and he is happy to answer all direct questions about the paintings in this resource. Happy painting!

This Unit of Work provides 4 linked lesson plans that guide teaching of skills and techniques associated with drawing, painting and relief work based on architecture. Each lesson plan is broken down into how the work will be assessed, the structure of the lesson, cross curricular links, homework and resources required. Also included for each lesson is a photocopiable information sheet for students, which is written in a student friendly manner. Students are encouraged through the scheme to analyse architecture in their locality, consider architecturally inspired artwork by recognised artists and develop their own responses. The unit of study allows for guided discovery.

A visual guide to building up simple 1 point perspective drawings. The slideshow is a step by step guide showing how to use an eye line and vanishing point to produce depth in drawings. This resource is suitable for all age groups and would be an ideal starting point for a lesson in perspective. It is fully editable.

Over 100 high quality images of architecture and architectural details. Suitable for Art and Design inspiration. A wide variety of styles and ages of building. Ideal as visual support for STEAM lessons.

Do you want to show students how Art education relates to the real world? This resource might help. Firstly you get 2 different schemes of work (2 different formats) which encourage students to engage in the built environment through drawing and mixed media work. Students get to learn about the rules of perspective through activities that have them recording built structures. They are then challenged to develop their own ideas using their new found 3D drawing skills. They are also engaged in the development of relief work with an architectural theme using cut card. The two schemes are provided as PDFs. Support is also provided through 7 demonstration videos. These cover the following. 2 videos on One Point Perspective An Introduction to 2 Point Perspective Draw Steps using Two Point Perspective Draw a House using Two Point Perspective 3 Point Perspective (Aerial Perspective) Relief Art using Card. Also included is slideshow of 100 architectural images for inspiration. We have included part of one of the videos in the preview section. All videos are presented by Mael Matthews, experienced Art teacher, Head of Department, Senior Art examiner, author and artists in his own right. We hope that this resource really help student see the importance of artistic skills in the world today … and might even help them decide on a future career in architecture! This resource is suitable for students aged 11 to 16.

This six minute long video provides clear demonstrations of how to draw steps in perspective. Two drawing demos show steps being drawn first from the front and then from an angle. A great resource to clearly show students how to build up three dimensional drawings using guide lines. Really useful not only as an initial demo, but also to play on loop whilst students work, so that they can glance up and remind themselves of the techniques. This video resource has no narration - it is designed as visual support which the teacher can talk over the top of if necessary, however that is not necessary because it is self explanatory. The visuals are accompanied by background music.
