Artist research - Judith Pfaff - Printing & Mixed media - Natural Forms

This lesson introduces the work of Judith Pfaff and could be used as artist research for the project: Natural Forms. Students can be introduced to the artist via a video clip made by Art21 found on Youtube. Students then build up their own mixed media piece using mono printing, foam printing and collage and working from images of plants and natural forms.
The lesson consists of: a starter; objectives and three practical activities which lead them to creating their own mixed media piece in response to the artist. Each stage is modelled with visual examples and differentiated learning outcomes. Printable step by step instructions are available at the end of the powerpoint. This lesson could easily be stretched across two lessons in order to build up layers in responses.
