Visual Art 120

Hey Peeps!! Isnt this a pretty crazy time we are in? Anyway, I just wanted to say a quick hello and that I hope everyone is doing great. I also hope you are enjoying this quality time with your family. I am really looking forward to hopefully hearing from you so you can tell me all about how you spent your time in quarantine....my house has never been cleaner lol.....oh, ive also learned a little about Tik Tok (now i know why you guys do those crazy dances lol).

So, ive posted the grade 12 curriculm document for you incase you didint bring a copy of it home. You were all proving to be creative geniuses before we fell into this time of Covid-19. Unfortunately, i know you probably dont have the supplies/resources that we have at school. So, whatever projects you decide you want to do will require you to use whatever you have at home. You already know how to figure out the document, therefore its just figuring out what you want to do, how youre going to do it, and how it relates to your objectives. If you get stuck with anything im only an email away: eric.fallon@nbed.nb.ca Maybe we can even figure out a way to do a video call.

One thing that I cannot stress enough...Please DO NOT make a trip to a store to pick up any supplies for Art. Like I said, if you get stuck for an idea, and have limited supplies/resources, I can help you out...I promise!!

Lets keep in contact...tell me what you think you might like to start with to meet your objectives.

Im looking forward to hearing from you.

Grade 9 Visual Art

Hi class :) I hope everyone is being safe during this strange time. I just wanted to say a quick hello and explaine the direction that we will be going in. Visual Art is a project based course that I have always relied on face-to-face, class time, to get things done. So, the home learning approach to Visual Art may have some challenges. Nevertheless, you folks have proven to be a pretty impressive group, so im confident we can do this!!

Unfortunately, I dont know what materials/supplies you have at home so i cant expect you all to do the same thing. So what I have decided to do is to show you what the province would like you to know, according to our curriculum document (Outcomes), translate it for you, and give you the option of figuring out how you think you can meet what is being asked.

9.1.3 create artworks, integrating themes found through direct observation, personal experience, and imagination

9.1.4 respond verbally and visually to the use of art elements in personal works and the works of others

What these outcomes are asking is that you draw, paint, sculpt, etc.. something that you observe, something that you can remember, or even something imaginary,,,The choice is yours to be creative. Then, I want you to be able to explain it to me how you used art elements.

I guess the only way that you can show/explain this to me is by taking a pic or video of what you have made. You can reach me by email: eric.fallon@nbed.nb.ca

I cant wait to see what youve created!!

Here is a little joke for you:
