This is a good place to start to understand what is colour and colour theory in the form of organising colours in a colour wheel. This i normally do in year seven but also go through again at GCSE - students should learn a large number of colour terms through this powerpoint. The powerpoint gives clear steps to making a colour wheel and then explains all the colour terms in depth, primary, secondary colour snd tertiary colours, with complementary and analogous colours. There are also more colour study tasks and more colour terms to understand, so it goes into more depth on different colours- including degraded colour, triads, hue, chroma, tint, tone, luminosity, lustre, neutral colours, monochrome and split contrasts. We will be learning to make a colour wheel We will be learning about colour terms We will be learning to make a colour wheel with paint, or with pencil crayons or with found objects We will be learning to combine a range of objects and arrange them in a colour wheel We will be making a drawing developing a mood by using colour There are also video clips on colour studies linked to tasks. Based on an understanding of colour there is a task to represent their own memories and feelings using colour, shape and pattern. “Try to close their eyes and remember an experience in terms of colour and form. Try to make visual notes in your sketchbooks. Make a painting which symbolises the experience let your feelings and memories come out by using different colours, shapes and patterns.’”

In this powerpoint there are key objectives: To use photographs of your school building and change them to emulate artists/photographers who show decay. To learn how to crinkle the picture up to show paper creases To blend in pictures of decay and textures into a school building photograph in the style of the artist. There is a clear definition for decay and students can use this to start there project. There are slides of a number of photographers to use for this theme and then examples of how to use Adobe Photoshop with steps to show progress in building your own outcome. The photographers are Cedric Wilson, Serj Fedulov, Paul Stokinger,Stikki Peaches, Martino Zegwaard and Armita Raafat. Students can use these photographers and there are steps to show how to achieve these effects on Adobe photoshop used by the photographers There is also a clear example on how to do an analysis of a photographer in your sketchbook To start with there is a recap on composition - how to take a photo and a reminder of the 4 Key objectives used in Photography and an explanation of what key objectives this meets. This powerpoint focuses on the assessment objective 'Develop ideas" from photographers and then how to " Explore" Adobe photoshop techniques to develop your Decay theme.

Introductory info for GCSE and A-level A powerpoint clearly showing what is style visually but also showing how people interpret the same subject matter differently. To clearly understand what is a style? Slides showing how style is grouped by culture, country, period, artist periods, time, and art movement. Lots of questions and discussions about what makes a style. Lesson Objective To understand what is Style in Art? To develop a deeper understanding of how artists are grouped together. To begin to analyse and question and discuss various artworks To look at examples of elements of Art and principles of design. To define each Art element and respond by making own interpretation To define each Art Principle and respond by making own interpretation Also after this a list of all the elements of art with good examples of artworks on each element. For example what is a line, shape, pattern, texture…? A list of all the principles of Design with good examples of artworks on each principle explaining what is Balance, Rhythm, Harmony…? Tasks are included Discussions on style and then completing an artwork for each principle and design and element of art. Excellent introductory powerpoint for GCSE or A-level

Lesson Objective A detailed presentation to understand the theory of colour and this 56 SLIDE PRESENTATION gives a complex set of slides on Colour, Looking at 'What is Colour theory?' AND Colour as light OR COLOUR as pigment and then giving example of sheets to use for a colour wheel. This then goes into detailed descriptions with examples of TERMS: primary, secondary, intermediary, tertiary but also colour VOCABULARY like HUE, TONAL VALUE, CHROMA, INTENSITY, MONOCHROME, ACHROMATIC, NEUTRAL, DEGRADED colours, COMPLEMENTARY colours, ANALOGOUS colours, TEMPERATURE of colour and LOCAL AND REFLECTED and OPTICAL colour. It also then looks at where Colour Theory came from - early examples of colour wheel by Goethe and then JOHANNES ITTEN and his colour theories on how colour creates SPACE and goes through how to use colour by contrasting size, texture and value to create this SPACE. This is for A-level and for Key Stage 3 and 4 to develop an in depth understanding of what is colour. There are tasks to develop in the presentation to develop colour skills. SOME TASKS: Painting a coloured design to a performance, developing colourful paintings to music, developing tonal values and there are sheets to use for a colour wheel study. There is also a reference to the PSYCHOLOGICAL meaning of colour Examples of Colour Theory Terms and artworks that link to the Terms with tasks for students to find different artworks and to analyse and discuss examples of artworks looking at the mood and how colour enhances this. Use this with A-level students to develop their vocabulary and knowledge of theory of art and how colour interacts. This is a good research study for students to add to their sketchbooks.
