A comprehensive drawing powerpoint with different tasks on developing drawing skills, discussions, mark-making exercises, different techniques, methods and examples to support observation skills in the classroom. To use with GCSE and A-level students to develop their skills in looking at drawings and discussing their techniques but also doing a variety of different tasks to develop their own recording skills. Learning to work with continuous lines, blind drawing, structural drawings, shading techniques, gestural drawing and free mark-making. The powerpoint has examples of drawings of a number of artists like, Paul Seurat, Frank Auerbach, Rembrandt and Van Gogh and gives a number of opportunities to learn from these artists and gives different methods to use to strengthen one’s drawing skills.

A powerpoint outlining some tasks for a Key Stage 3 project on Tim Burton. In this project there are a number of skills, pencil drawingwith pen work, chalk and charcoal drawing on black paper, making a black and white silhouette cut out, collaging harcoal drawing onto bottle and painting bottle, further developing a character on a bottle and making a wool paper character. This also has a few quizzes and student examples of work to support the tasks. Starting with presenting a title page for Tim Burton and copying some of his scenes by practising pencil tone and mark making. Layering pencil and black pen in drawing when copying Burton’s work Photocopy examples for students to work from to print off. Then developing a cut out in black paper looking at the strange, Gothic type black and white silhouettes of some of his scenes and making a page on his settings using black paper and cut-outs. The slides give a number of the silhouette type scenes for students to use for inspiration. Further developing a character drawing and students are to look at the number of different slides and these could be printed off for students and letting them develop their own character. Some of the You tube film clips are linked on the slides as well. Students draw out the character and then colour this in. Tim Burton’s scenes are often dark and atmospheric and this is an ideal opportunity to practise drawing with white chalk, charcoal or black soft pastel on black sugar paper and to do a drawing of one of his black and white characters. There are some examples to use to copy from to support the students learning. This black and white scene can further be photocopied and collaged onto a bottle. There is also an extension task to make a head on a wine bottle in paper-mache and lots of inspirational examples of student work Another fun task is to play with wool and paper and to make a rolled animal using newspaper in rolls and then wrapping wool around this and to bend into shape. This can further be embellished by adding bits and bobs like buttons, braid and other decorative details to develop a character type animal which has been inspired by Burton. There are a few quizzes and homework tasks as well.

Expressionism was made up of Der Brucke Art movement and Der Blaue Reiter - there are also examples of these artists linked to Expressionism. Der Blaue Reiter is Frans Marck and Wassily Kandinsky. Key examples given with notes about the movement to be used as worksheets for students.

Students are to develop creative drawing by analyzing and interpreting a variety of selected artists. Students will produce a drawing showing contextual evidence that supports the assessment criteria for the A Level course. This powerpoint gives the LESSON PLAN AT TH END OF THE PRESENTATION. Students to reflect on examples of copies of drawings of different MASTERS and illustrators and begin to analyse the types of shapes, lines and marks. Develop an understanding of signature styles of particular artists and the way the artist’s signature captures the intrinsic meaning of the artist. Students to develop an A2 sheet of drawings which shows the different mark making skills of a number of different artists; develop a still-life drawing which support a number of different artists marks. You must show evidence of research and of investigating and developing ideas. This should include visual work and, if appropriate, annotations or written work. Practical responses to the work of other artists, designers, craftspeople and photographers must show development in a personal way. ASSESSMENT OBJECTIVE:  develop ideas through sustained and focused investigations informed by contextual and other sources, demonstrating analytical and critical understanding   Analysis Activity- follow Mark-making analysis of artists Put students into PAIRS give out an example of each of these artists drawing – photocopy to pair CULLEN AND AUERBACH, VAN GOGH AND POLLOCK FEININGER AND GILMAN NICOLSON AND MICHELANGELO   Students to describe the marks, the quality of the lines and shapes that define the artist.   Analysis Activity Feedback– Choose one of the works and will one of you in the group discuss this with the class. Other students may also add comments. TASK ACTIVITY Creative Practical Skills independently Students to choose 2 of the artists discussed or analysed in the groups and try to do a drawing now in the style of those two artists. With a ‘window frame’ students to draw in the style of the artist in a small frame on their sheet. Prompts Questions to Evaluate Drawing outcome What does it remind you of?  What does the work represent? Have any parts been exaggerated or distorted? What message does the work communicate?  What kind of marks does the artist use? What kind of shapes can you find?  What materials and tools have been used?  How does the work make you feel? Does the line, shape, colour affect your mood? What do you like about it Why? What don’t you like? Why? How might you take ideas to use in your own work?  What do you know about the artist? Does the work relate to the social or political history of the time?

Used for A-level students to develop their interest in ink-wash techniques by looking at the work of Renaissance artists. History of Art - Renaissance ink wash methods and outcomes. A discussion with loads of examples of their work and how they formed their compositions and developed their drawings. Also how to make home inks.

This is a step by step drawing of a cupcake - showing how to start with basic shapes and then adding in the detail and the shading. This is part of the modern movements project where students make a cake stand with various cup cakes in different art styles linked to modern movements: Expressionism, Neo-Impressionism, Fauvism, Realism, Surrealism. It also has some slides showing how to do some mark-making exercises to build up students ability to control pencil skills and to capture detail. Students can also draw from a picture of a cup-cake or preferably have a real cup-cake in front of them to draw from. Students can also use the grid method to draw a cupcake and there is a picture of this technique to help.

This is lesson 4 in the portrait project. Students firstly do a pencil shading of their face using the grid technique and learn how to draw different parts of the face carefully. Secondly students do a monoprint and this is in lesson 2 portrait project and they use their photograph to trace off into the ink to make the monopring. Thirdly students then collage into the monoprint and use Paolozzi as an artist and collage into the monoprint. In this powerpoint the student use one of their photographs and draw into the photocopy. Students look at the artist Chila Burman and look at the way she interprets her Asian and British identity. Students need to think about their own identity and the way they are going to collage into their own photo-copy. Students use felt tips and draw into the photocopies making patterns and try to interpret cultural patterns in bright colours. Your Learning Objective was: To study an example of CHILA BURMAN n your book and describe what you see Students to find out about CHILA BURMAN and begin to understand her Asian and British identity. Students to use their photograph and develop the bright colours and cultural identity in the portrait. To use cultural patterns and to create a self identity photo portrait. SUCCESS CRITERIA Cultural awareness of our differences Understanding of different styles and using digital photography creatively with patterns Appreciation of own patterns and self-identity Collaging: Photographs of everyday items, patterns, favourite clothes, magazine text, Newspaper highlights, paint textures and close up of photos of household items: objects that show own culture and self-identity

Attached are three powerpoints for developing a KS3 Collage in Fabric on the 12 Days of Xmas and the artist Aminah Robinson. Students use the ‘resources’ powerpoint to draw ideas to make up their own design for the 12 days of Xmas. Class divided and each child gets a different day to design. I used Black velvet fabric as my backing fabric and each time the student did their drawing I traced this onto different coloured fabric shapes and students then cut this out and pritt sticked this onto the black velvet fabric. see powerpoint of song '12 days of xmas ’ for resources see powerpoint Artist interpretation and learning about different fabric artists. see powerpoint on stitchung techniques Thirdly, students then cut their designs out in fabric - I used transfer receipt like paper so students could trace onto the fabric and then cut out. Finally students then embellish their fabric with different stitches and I have a powerpoint with video links on how to do the different stitches: running stitch, blanket stitch, satin stitch, chain stitch and daisy stitch…

These are a set of 6 sheets which can be laminated for classroom tables to help students with writing about Art. These are lists of descriptive words linked to the Elements of art and the Principles of design. These will help students to be able to write about artworks and help to broaden vocabulary. There are also words to help with writing at GCSE and support with writing under the GCSE Assessment Objectives as well. There are also sheets to help with writing frames to support weaker students when they analyse and write about their artworks. This can be used with Key Stage 3, GCSE and A-level Leaving these on the desks in the classroom support literacy learning and help students with vocabulary.

The project has examples of plant forms to look at and by using Ernst Haeckel and Nikki de St Phalle. The students begin to research their own design plant shape on a presentation sheet. This involves drawing with fine pens over a wash of colour.Examples are given in Powerpoint - lots of pictures of plants and examples of how to do a wash. Students can also do some Wax and scratch drawings of natural forms using wax crayons and oil pastels. Students then present these on a preparatory sheet- there are examples of this technique. Secondly students then using their own drawings (wax and scratch) of plants and Niki de St Phalle and Haeckel begin to do a design sheet for their monster plant. Resources needed: Plastic pot plants to stand the branches and plants in, withies, newspaper, tissue paper, masking tape, PVA glue to make paper mache glue, re-cycled card, re-cycled bottles, acrylic paints to decorate. The students study they work of Niki De St. Phalle looking at her biomorphic and colourful sculptures and then by using the her work as inspiration plan a design and build a 3D form using withies, found re-cycled plastic bottles and cardboard and construct a plant form in a large plastic plant pot as a basis. There are examples of outcomes and examples of skills to use in the buildong of construction, The powerpoint has lots of examples to use as inspiration and final examples of outcome.

This is a GCSE coursework project on a theme called ‘Surfaces’ giving you loads of ideas to develop with your students. It deals with developing ideas to gain confidence with different media and to develop sketchbook skills. It is about the process of developing the Examboard Assessment Objectives AO1- Develop ideas from artists and AO2 Exploring different media for coursework. It gives a set of observational photographs to work from for Assessment Objective 3 - AO3. It gives you different artists to look at to gather resources on and students will be able to use these as artist studies and begin to explore these artists techniques and do studies in their book. This if for Assessment Objective 1 and students can gain ideas on ways to develop their skills in techniques through these artists and in so doing ‘Develop ideas’. There are further sets of techniques for Assessment Objective 2 and one can explore, experiment with ideas for developing ‘creativity’ in your classroom. That is, exploring a number of different media and showing how one can take risks with the media in order to create an interesting effect. There are slides giving you a set of techniques to use - explaining how to use media in creative ways. These techiques link with the list of artists given on slides to start with. The experimental techniques are: =white paint printing, =wax and scratch, =distressing surfaces, =dripping paint, scraping paint, =using sgrafitto, =cardboard collaging =layering digital manipulations with collage =using fabric and sewing into surfaces. Emphasis here is that students should play and take risks and experiment with different materials and begin to layer and be able to draw on different surfaces. It is a fun set of techniques at GCSE and/or A-level with students using their own resource material and developing their confidence and fluency with making creative experiments. Students can develop their own responses using the techniques. There are questions so that students can write a final evaluation. After this set of work students should be confident and independent enough to find their own photographs and to develop their own idea for a final piece for Assessment Objective 4.
