Tatiana, 7th grade I love to start the year out with this project! It gives the students an opportunity to experiment with different types of mediums while allowing me to get a better idea of where they are at artistically. We study the Pop Art movement with a focus on former Ohio State graduate, Roy Lichtenstein. (Above: Ohhh...Alright..., Roy Lichtenstein, 1964) I've done this project before, and it started out the same; drawing a self-portrait using the grid method. I didn't change much this year, but the students did. They got so creative and really pushed their projects to the next level! Some students had accidents that had to solve which ultimately ended up adding so much to their paintings! For example, Anthony (who insisted on making his face green) was not happy about the inconsistencies of the Ben-Day dots that he had created. The dots were very close together on the left side of his neck but much more spread out on the other areas of his face and neck. After some discussion, he found a solution to his problem that ultimately added so much to his work; he discovered shading! Through his one small mistake, he not only improved his work, but also inspired others! Like Maddie seen below! Other students added Ben-Day dots to other areas and got super creative with their backgrounds.. Some even incorporated themes! Check them out!
