KANDINSKY LANDSCAPES

ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS:
How are color and mood related?
How can you create an illusion of three-dimensional depth on a two-dimensional surface?
Why is it important to have resources when you draw?


STUDENT EXAMPLES
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Create a landscape whose subject and colors adhere to a mood (for example: peaceful, haunted, happy, sad, etc.). The landscape must have a foreground, middleground, and background. Students must, within each section, blend either from light to dark (for example: light blue to dark blue) or between three colors (red to orange to yellow).

REQUIREMENTS
Prep:
  1. Resources: You must use resources to draw anything that you want in your painting. If you want, for example, a boat, look up a drawing of a boat and draw from that. 
  2. Drawings: You must sketch out everything you want in your landscape before you get your final paper.
  3. Painting Practice: You must practice blending between three colors and from light to dark in a linear format and also within a series of shapes (circles or or other geometric shapes).
  4. Get Your Final Paper: Show your drawings and painting practice to Ms. B in order to get your final paper. 

Painting:​
  1. FG, MG, BG: Your work must have a foreground, middleground, and background. 
  2. Mood: The drawings/objects in your painting, as well as your colors, must adhere to a mood of your choosing.  
  3. Blending: There are no color ledges in your painting. You went from light to dark or between three colors in each section. 
  4. Craftsmanship: Your work is as neat as possible. 

Effort:
The student took time to develop their ideas fully.  Many new techniques were tried. The student made excellent use of class time.
