MANDALA

Yesterday the students continued working on their Mandalas. We will critique these drawings first thing Monday morning before moving onto the collage project "Parts of the Puzzle."
As you finish these up pay attention to line quality and how it affects depth and placement in the design. In addition, try to achieve a balance and rhythm through similarity and repetition of black, white and gray shapes (patterns and textures). Below are a couple of progress shots.

MANDALA

This week students are working on creating Mandalas. The objective is to create a bold design of black, white and gray shapes. This project is the culmination of all the previous Line projects exploring line dynamic, pattern, texture and line as value. Below are some examples from previous classes.

FINAL PROJECT: Decorative Space

Students will be working on their final projects all this week.  The objective is to create an image of shallow depth, a more decorative use of space, composed of multiple formats. These formats will be occupied by simple shapes filled with patterns and textures. Here are some examples from previous semesters for reference.
