3D Monster

 


Description - To begin this acitvity, I folded the face. I folded about an inch on each side in and then glued one side to the background. In order for it ot stand up, I glued the second side in a little bit more than the other side. Once I was done gluing my face, I created the eyes but cutting out circles and adding the design. Then, I used the crimp folding method to create the red strings. I cut my mouth out and glued everything to the face. After I finished the face, I rolled two pieces of a paper into small tubes to create the necks. Finally, I cut the body out and used a sharpie to make pocka-dots on the body.

Extentsion activity - Another 3D activity that I would use is paper sculptures. To begin, the students would cut a piece of cardboard square. The square can be any reasonable size that they would like. After the students get their cardboard square, they will roll up different sizes and lengths of paper. The students can make as many circles as they would like, but it has to fill up the majority of their square. The students will be able to create any design that they would like. Some examples are their first initial of their name, a flower, a random design. Once the students have come up with their design, then they will use glue to glue the paper to the cardboard. The paper would stick out from the cardboard to create the 3D design.

Printmaking Design

Image
Description - To begin this project, I had to draw three different designs onto a small square sheet of paper. After I had drawn all three, I then picked which design I liked the best. Then, I used a foam square and placed my drawing on top of it. I took a pencil and pushed my drawing into the foam square. I had to make sure that my drawing was deep enough into the square so that when I went to print it, it would show up. After I was done transferring it onto my foam square, I picked twelve different colors of construction paper squares to put my print onto. Once I choose all of my squares, I went to a station that had ink on it. I used a roller and rolled the ink onto my foam square and then flipped it onto the construction squares and pressed done. I repeated those steps on all twelve of my squares. I was able to use either white ink, black ink, or both. Once I had put my drawing onto each of my squares, I created a pattern on a larger sheet of construction paper and glued the square...

The Dot

Image
  Description - When I completed this activity, it was around Dot Day. I used a coffee filter as the material to draw and write on. I used sharpie, crayon, markers, and water colors. For my name, I used sharpie to write it. I used maker and created the dots all over my dot. I used crayons and created stars all over, which is hard to see in the picture. Finally, I used the water colors, which is the green and blue. This activity showed how the different art writing materials mix together or stand out when you add water to them. The markers and water colors all mixed together, while the sharpie and crayons rejected the water and didn't bleed together. Other materials that you could have used was colored pencils or oil pastels. Extension Activity - An other activity that I could do around Dot day would be using a plate, construction paper, and paint. The students will turn the plate over so that the bottom of it is facing up. The students will choose different colors of paint and plac...

The Starry Night

Image
  Description - I used The Starry Night as an example to go off of while doing this art project. I used tissue paper to create the 'swirls' that van Gogh used in The Starry Night. I ripped my tissue paper into different sized pieces. I placed the pieces all over the paper and used a clear glue mix to glue them down. I placed a small bit of the glue mix under the pieces, put the pieces over it, then used my paint brush to brush the glue mix over the whole piece of tissue paper. After I got done putting all of my tissue paper on my project, I had to let it sit and dry. While I let it dry, I cut out my landscaping. The landscaping could be any type that I wanted it to, so based off of my colors, I created a desert landscaping. I cut out cactuses and then used green oil pastel to create it spikes. I used brown pastel to create the tumble weeds. Once my project was dry, I glued the landscaping to it and used oil pastel to create the lines across the paper.  Extension Activity - Ano...
