Lets finish those collages! Today we will practice sketching and look at a new surrealist collage artist.

March 15th

After yesterdays class period I have realized that I haven't explained surrealism enough. A lot of us are confusing a basic collage with a surrealism collage. So, today we will be looking over surrealism and what sets it apart from collage. We will also touch back on general to specific. The rest of the class period will be devoted to finishing our surrealism collage and drawing it on thicker Bristol board.

March 14th

Take a look at today's art work in the warm up. What do you think? Is this an example of Surrealism? Why or why not? From here we will look at our daily artist Alex Fishgoyt and examine some of his surrealist paintings. We will then look at the rubric requirements for this project. Unlike the last two, this project will be graded against this rubric. We will then talk about the steps we have already completed and how to begin drawing or painting our surrealist collage using the notion of general to specific. Refer to slides for daily artist,  project rubric and project instructions for today.

We will continue looking at surrealist examples and look over Russian painter/sculptors Vladimir Kush's work. We will then discuss the next two steps to the project. Refer to the slides for the instructions and power point.
