COLOR WHEELS IN PAINTING
|
Color Wheels are the first project for 7th and 8th grade Painting students. In our exploration of color theory, students start off with a paint chip game where they need to make some educated guesses about color schemes, they take notes on color theory, and then self-select a "mild", "medium", or "spicy" color wheel option, of which they will have the same period of time to complete and same rubric for grading. Color Wheel studio work days generally span six days (including our fist class critique!) but I've focused most of the google slides artifacts included here from the introduction and first studio work day but would be happy to expand on this in an interview.

Originally inspired by a project from the Art of Education website, this is generally our second project in Ceramics. 7th and 8th-grade artists self-select a mild, medium, or spicy option. Regardless of what level they pick, artists stick to the same timeline and rubric. Grades within this lesson leading up to the project, include a resource image grade, where artists upload a resource image to our school-wide online platform, Canvas, as well as a checkpoint grade where we conference one-on-one looking at their ideation and sketches, all before they move onto working on their final project in clay. This is, again, a small sneak peak at this bigger project that I'd be more than happy to expand on.
