Day 2 of Art 7 & 8

The previous images are my results that will serve as samples for Day 2.

Day 2 of Art 7 & 8:

Each student introduced her or himself again and in one sentence described one thing they learned while drawing and applying water to the watercolor pencil rendering. Then the student mentioned something they learned from the painting of the previous student. [To be further noted.]

Photoshop examples were shown and discussed. [To be further noted.]

Student watercolor on paper work photographed by Chantelle and downloaded to 10 (minus one without CD drive: check status with IT) computers. I introduced pairs of students to their assigned computers and Photoshop Elements. Elaine worked with students by showing her artwork and reviewing the student's work before they painted on watercolor paper. Students continued watercolor paintings. [To be further noted.]

Student work displayed on bulletin board and put in plastic sleeve portfolios. [To be further noted.]

Hi Melissa - I love the idea that one could create a piece of art in the traditional manner and convert it digitally - then "Play" with it do explore ideas and concepts that s/he might not have thought about or been technically able to accomplish. I wonder - do students, who are perhaps not as technically skilled, find this "process" especially liberating? One of the reasons I gravitated to 3-D arts was that I never really mastered the techniques of drawing and painting. This process would open up a whole new world for folks like me!
