This week in art we are doing Sonja Terk Delaunay inspired lino cutting. We picked one of the drawings we drew and split it into two and drew the two halves on lino.
 
Learning outcome:
To have an understanding of Sonja Terk Delaunay, Orphism and colour theory through lino printing. We should also understand what leading lines and focal points are.
Learning Process:
Research Sonja's artwork and create some thumbnail sketches of her work. We researched facts about Sonja and looked more into her art for our thumbnail sketches. We then drew our own sketches for lino.
What would I change?
I would make it less boring and add more shapes and colours.

ReplyDeleteThanks.
Deletegreat to see your htumbnail sketches up there too now. see you next week:-)
DeleteKia ora Chloe, simplicity is not necessarily boring. And then we can also do things like rotate your block and reprint it on the same space to add interest. Back int he 20's, people thought that Sonja Terk Delauney's work was too simple to be relevant, yet 100 years later, we still know her name and people still study her. Wait and see our next step. Your work will be very cool.
