Ms. Hsieh's Clarke Art Remote Learning: Rainbow Goes Wild Part One 4/27-5/1

Hi, students:

Great feedback on your appreciation Art Critique. I have learned a lot from you!

I want to share the excellent insights:

What a meaningful big idea should be? Thanks to this 8th-grade student.- D. N.

1. The big idea should be a big life statement that can apply to anyone, not just the artist. I noticed that lots of students had big ideas that I could take to make my own life better, and they weren't just specific to the artist.

2. Often, explaining small details in the artwork will really support the big idea. For example, many successful students highlighted how little decisions such as color, line, and background in their artwork were made to support the big idea. 3. The big idea should convey a positive message. The big ideas that I read made me feel hopeful and optimistic that life will be better. Even when times are rough, these big ideas showed that there is still hope.

Theme: Rainbow Goes Wild

Idea: Understand the color theory and use Color Wheel as your reference to create the Art challenge.

Color Wheel Theory: art creations related to the color wheel that also can be expressed with the variety of color schemes. To understand how to pick the best color schemes, it’s first important to understand the three different types of colors.

Combining primary, secondary, and tertiary colors together, we get the color wheel.

Colors opposite from each other on the color wheel are said to be complementary.

Contrasting themes can liven up any artwork

Analogous color schemes use colors that are next to each other on the color wheel. They usually match well and create serene and comfortable designs.

The monochromatic (or mono) scheme is a color scheme based on only one, single color tint. It uses only variations (shades) of a single hue, made by altering the saturation and brightness of the base color.
