Vocabulary
Viewpoint
Remember that form is art that is three-dimensional (3D) and has length, width, and depth. This art takes up space. You are going to make your guitar show form by drawing it from a side viewpoint. A viewpoint is the position or angle from which the viewer sees a subject.
Drag the light to a place on the blue to show where the light might be coming from. Hint: The shadows fall away from the light, on the other side.
Light Source
Where is the light coming from? How do you know?
Drag the light to place it below on the left or right side, depending on where you think the light is coming from.
Hint: Shadows fall away from the light on the opposite side!
Let's Draw the side!
You can show the left or right side. It's your choice!
Mixed Media
Can you guess what mixed media means by looking at parts of the word? In studio art, media means ____________. Mixed means ______________. so... Mixed media is __________ What types of media do you see mixed here? Today we'll paint over drawing. Next class, after our painting dries, we'll draw colorful designs overtop, cut it out , and glue it over papers we weave together for background!
Mixed Media
Mixed media is the term used when artists use more than one medium in their artwork. This means you will use more than one art supply to create your art.
Tints Shades
A color plus black for shadows on the side.
A color plus white for highlights.
Let's Paint the sides!
DEMO: DRAW & paint with Me

Objective talk about art...
subjects
landscape or...
movement
or art movements
Today we'll see movement in a different kind of abstract art where there is no subject, just elements repeating. We will look at the art movement, Op Art. It came after Post Impressionism (early 1900s), much later, in 1960-70s.
Op Art
Optical Art
What parts of the word optical do you know? Can you guess the meaning? *Today you can make your own optical art weaving or answer questions about suffixes like -al in Flocabulary for full credit.
Op Art
Today you might weave an op art effect!
Op art is short for optical art and is an abstract art style that uses patterns, shapes, and colors to create a visual effect that tricks the eye.
These effects often make the artwork look like it is moving even though it is created on a flat surface.

Vocabulary
Marc Chagall. The Fiddler. 1913. oil, canvas 188x158cm. Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Emphasis
In art, emphasis is an area of a composition that stands out or grabs your attention. Another word for emphasis is focal point. An artist can create emphasis through
- color,
- size,
- and placement on the page
What is the emphasis here? Circle it! Why do you think that?
Artist-Marc Chagall
Marc Chagall was
- a Russian-French artist from a small village
- known for his dreamlike, colorful paintings.
- many of his artworks reflect his memories of his village life.
His art style was unique, creative, nd imaginative as it reflected the combined art movements of cubism, surrealism, and expressionism with floating people, animals, and bright colors.
Chagall
Marc Chagall. Over the Town. 1918. oil, canvas. 45x56 cm. Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow, Russia.
Marc Chagall. The Fiddler. 1913. oil, canvas. 188x158cm. Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Marc Chagall. I and the Village. 1911. oil, canvas. 191x150.5 cm. Museum of Modern Art, New York City, NY, US.
Emphasis
Where is the emphasis here? Why is that? What color scheme did he use? Where are rests? What are shapes repeated for visual interest?
Symbolism
Remember How you used symbols in unit 1!
Symbolism is when an artist uses clues to give a deeper meaning to what something stands for. An artist may use colors, objects, and images to represent something with a deeper meaning. Symbolism helps artists represent ideas creatively and powerfully without using written words.
link to explore Symbolism in Chagall's artwork, "Dreamscape"
Symbolism
*can't go back to his homeland
Match (drag) facts to the hotspot to show which part symbolizes the idea.
*leap of faith
*someone died and came back to life as a cat
*seeing life from Paris
*looking to his past homeland in Russia and looking to the future in Paris
What symbols woud you include in your art, if you were a symbolist like Chagall?

------
Materials next Critique class: Previous artwork from unit 4: Art Rocks 4.4 or Mixed Media Art, 4.6, or you might choose the art appreciation option where no artwork required!
PA standard of 9.1.8 A since learners can know and use the elements and principles of each art form to create works in the arts and humanities. In this lesson, Art 7, 4.5, they create mixed-media art inspired by a cubist artist, Marc Chagall, who was studied earlier in the unit. PA standard 9.1.8 B C since learners continue to identify and use comprehensive vocabulary within each of the arts forms as they critique their art, or, with the art appreciation option, have the chance to critique the work "Three Musicians" by cubist Pablo Picasso instead of their own, and also works by fellow learners for extra credit. VA: Cr: 2.1.7a, since learners demonstrate persistence (over a 2-day project in this case) in developing skills with various materials, methods, and approaches in creating works of art or design. In Art 7 4.5, it is part 2 of a 2-day project where they learn chalk pastel techniques and apply colorful pastels to dried tissue paper and drawing from part 1 to show texture and emphasize important symbols drawn.
I added options where, instead of copying the edio example Chagall artwork, Paris Through the Window, learners can choose to be inspired by Chagall's use of color, both arbitrary and meaningful, symbols, mixed media, and emphasis, as they show their own chosen colors and personal symbols for meaning in original views of people, places, and things important to them.
I have found that encouraging them to personalize their artwork helps them move toward the next standard in critique, next lesson VA: Cr3.1.7a Reflect and explain important information about personal artwork in an artist statement or another format. It also helps with VA: Re. 7.2.7a, where they analyze multiple ways that images influence specific audiences. Everyone does this in the Critique lesson 4.6, but learners who choose art appreciation options, without needing to make the art, get more practice with this standard by having a chance (collapsible box) in edio) to analyze parts and views of the cubist painting by Picasso, showing many views of 3 musicians (and a poet) and their musical instruments, to state what they think the title of the art could be, and explain why, based on what they've noticed.

Emphasis
What do you notice first in the art? What stands out or is the focal point?
Above, the word emphasis is emphasized with the different color pink! Making a part of the art stand out with difference in color size, placement, or more can create emphasis so you notice it more.
Guess the title. Why do you think that?
Titles Can Tell Subjects
The title is what the art is called. A title can identify the subject. What's the subject or main thing/person shown here? The artwork on the right is Dos Mujeres by Frida Kahlo.
The title is in Spanish, and it means “Two Women.”
This title is straightforward and identifies the subject of the artwork, which is two women.
Frida Kahlo. Dos Mujeres. 1929. Oil on canvas.
Titles Can Tell a Story
The artwork on the left is I and the Village by Marc Chagall.
Why do you think it is called that? What story is being told here?
Titles Can Tell a Story
The artwork is I and the Village by Marc Chagall because... Chagall created this art to tell the story of his childhood. This colorful, dreamlike painting shows a mix of scenes from his childhood Russian village where he grew up.
The artwork shows many abstract images of symbolism representing a part of Chagall's childhood.
The title of this work refers to the place where he grew up.
Marc Chagall. I and the Village. 1911. Oil on canvas. Museum of Modern Art, New York.
Titles Can Explain Inspiration
The artwork is The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh.
This painting was inspired by the night's stars. The sky is full of swirling, abstract shapes, but the title gives a hint that the painting shows a starry night.
Vincent van Gogh. The Starry Night. 1889. Oil and canvas, and pastel on canvas. 73 cm X 92 cm. Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), NY.
Brrainstorm Title Ideas/Guess Symbolism
Brainstorm titles for your art and your friends' artworks from unit 4 or for Picasso's art if you didn't make the art or prefer. Remember titles can - explain inspiration
- hint at meaning
- tell stories and
- show subjects
Which will your title do? In crit, you can explain why you chose the title. First let's brainstorm titles together and earn extra credit on the padlet by sharing and explaining ideas to support each other!

Vocabulary
Viewpoint
Remember that form is art that is three-dimensional (3D) and has length, width, and depth. This art takes up space. You are going to make your guitar show form by drawing it from a side viewpoint. A viewpoint is the position or angle from which the viewer sees a subject.
Drag the light to a place on the blue to show where the light might be coming from. Hint: The shadows fall away from the light, on the other side.
Light Source
Where is the light coming from? How do you know?
Drag the light to place it below on the left or right side, depending on where you think the light is coming from.
Hint: Shadows fall away from the light on the opposite side!
Let's Draw the side!
You can show the left or right side. It's your choice!
Mixed Media
Can you guess what mixed media means by looking at parts of the word? In studio art, media means ____________. Mixed means ______________. so... Mixed media is __________ What types of media do you see mixed here? Today we'll paint over drawing. Next class, after our painting dries, we'll draw colorful designs overtop, cut it out , and glue it over papers we weave together for background!
Mixed Media
Mixed media is the term used when artists use more than one medium in their artwork. This means you will use more than one art supply to create your art.
Tints Shades
A color plus black for shadows on the side.
A color plus white for highlights.

Are these Op Artworks flat?
If the image bothers your eyes and you are prone to headaches, you may write your guitar story in the Art 7 notebook instead of disussing Op Art.
Objective talk about art...
subjects

movement
or art movements
Today we'll see movement in a different kind of abstract art where there is no subject, just elements repeating. We will look at the art movement, Op Art. It came after Post Impressionism (early 1900s), much later, in 1960-70s.

Optical Art
What parts of the word optical do you know? Can you guess the meaning? *Today you can make your own optical art weaving or answer questions about suffixes like -al in Flocabulary for full credit.
Op Art
Today you might weave an op art effect!
Op art is short for optical art and is an abstract art style that uses patterns, shapes, and colors to create a visual effect that tricks the eye. These effects often make the artwork look like it is moving even though it is created on a flat surface.

Marc Chagall. The Fiddler. 1913. oil, canvas 188x158cm. Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Emphasis
In art, emphasis is an area of a composition that stands out or grabs your attention. Another word for emphasis is focal point. An artist can create emphasis through
- color,
- size,
- and placement on the page
What is the emphasis here? Circle it! Why do you think that?Artist-Marc Chagall
Marc Chagall was
- many of his artworks reflect his memories of his village life.
His art style was unique, creative, nd imaginative as it reflected the combined art movements of cubism, surrealism, and expressionism with floating people, animals, and bright colors.Chagall
Marc Chagall. Over the Town. 1918. oil, canvas. 45x56 cm. Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow, Russia.
Marc Chagall. The Fiddler. 1913. oil, canvas. 188x158cm. Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Marc Chagall. I and the Village. 1911. oil, canvas. 191x150.5 cm. Museum of Modern Art, New York City, NY, US.
Emphasis
Where is the emphasis here? Why is that? What color scheme did he use? Where are rests? What are shapes repeated for visual interest?
Symbolism
Remember How you used symbols in unit 1!
Symbolism is when an artist uses clues to give a deeper meaning to what something stands for. An artist may use colors, objects, and images to represent something with a deeper meaning. Symbolism helps artists represent ideas creatively and powerfully without using written words.

Materials next Critique class: Previous artwork from unit 4: Art Rocks 4.4 or Mixed Media Art, 4.6, or you might choose the art appreciation option where no artwork required!
PA standard of 9.1.8 A since learners can know and use the elements and principles of each art form to create works in the arts and humanities. In this lesson, Art 7, 4.5, they create mixed-media art inspired by a cubist artist, Marc Chagall, who was studied earlier in the unit. PA standard 9.1.8 B C since learners continue to identify and use comprehensive vocabulary within each of the arts forms as they critique their art, or, with the art appreciation option, have the chance to critique the work "Three Musicians" by cubist Pablo Picasso instead of their own, and also works by fellow learners for extra credit. VA: Cr: 2.1.7a, since learners demonstrate persistence (over a 2-day project in this case) in developing skills with various materials, methods, and approaches in creating works of art or design. In Art 7 4.5, it is part 2 of a 2-day project where they learn chalk pastel techniques and apply colorful pastels to dried tissue paper and drawing from part 1 to show texture and emphasize important symbols drawn. I added options where, instead of copying the edio example Chagall artwork, Paris Through the Window, learners can choose to be inspired by Chagall's use of color, both arbitrary and meaningful, symbols, mixed media, and emphasis, as they show their own chosen colors and personal symbols for meaning in original views of people, places, and things important to them. I have found that encouraging them to personalize their artwork helps them move toward the next standard in critique, next lesson VA: Cr3.1.7a Reflect and explain important information about personal artwork in an artist statement or another format. It also helps with VA: Re. 7.2.7a, where they analyze multiple ways that images influence specific audiences. Everyone does this in the Critique lesson 4.6, but learners who choose art appreciation options, without needing to make the art, get more practice with this standard by having a chance (collapsible box) in edio) to analyze parts and views of the cubist painting by Picasso, showing many views of 3 musicians (and a poet) and their musical instruments, to state what they think the title of the art could be, and explain why, based on what they've noticed.

Emphasis
What do you notice first in the art? What stands out or is the focal point?
Above, the word emphasis is emphasized with the different color pink! Making a part of the art stand out with difference in color size, placement, or more can create emphasis so you notice it more.
Guess the title. Why do you think that?
Titles Can Tell Subjects
The title is what the art is called. A title can identify the subject. What's the subject or main thing/person shown here? The artwork on the right is Dos Mujeres by Frida Kahlo. The title is in Spanish, and it means “Two Women.” This title is straightforward and identifies the subject of the artwork, which is two women.
Frida Kahlo. Dos Mujeres. 1929. Oil on canvas.
Titles Can Tell a Story
The artwork on the left is I and the Village by Marc Chagall. Why do you think it is called that? What story is being told here?
Titles Can Tell a Story
The artwork is I and the Village by Marc Chagall because... Chagall created this art to tell the story of his childhood. This colorful, dreamlike painting shows a mix of scenes from his childhood Russian village where he grew up. The artwork shows many abstract images of symbolism representing a part of Chagall's childhood. The title of this work refers to the place where he grew up.
Marc Chagall. I and the Village. 1911. Oil on canvas. Museum of Modern Art, New York.
Titles Can Explain Inspiration
The artwork is The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh. This painting was inspired by the night's stars. The sky is full of swirling, abstract shapes, but the title gives a hint that the painting shows a starry night.
Vincent van Gogh. The Starry Night. 1889. Oil and canvas, and pastel on canvas. 73 cm X 92 cm. Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), NY.
Brrainstorm Title Ideas/Guess Symbolism
Brainstorm titles for your art and your friends' artworks from unit 4 or for Picasso's art if you didn't make the art or prefer. Remember titles can
- explain inspiration
- hint at meaning
- tell stories and
- show subjects
Which will your title do? In crit, you can explain why you chose the title. First let's brainstorm titles together and earn extra credit on the padlet by sharing and explaining ideas to support each other!Extra Credit Padlet
