Figures by Design
Mr. Flint Art 2-D

Objectives:

Draw figures using proportional guidelines (8 heads = 1 body). Create accurately drawn figures from photographic models using contour and gesture drawing techniques. Compose artwork with figures and basic perspective methods (varied size, overlapping, and drawing off the page). Design patterns to fill composition using ink.

Phase 1: Demonstration and practice. Students draw along with teacher using photographic model. Instructor shows “8 heads” guidelines followed by stick figure on top with neck, shoulders, torso with tapered waist and flared hips, arms, legs, hands, and feet. Stick figure is fleshed out with tapering arms and legs. Contour outline refines and completes figure. Instructor demonstrates using proportion relationships to draw models in different poses.

Phase 2: Students choose 6 photographic models from magazines to draw in pencil according to demonstrated/practiced methods. Instructor monitors and assists (Students will pencil sketch in their Investigation Workbooks [sketchbook] using proportional guidelines 8 heads = 1 body).

Phase 3: Students select their best 5 out of the above 6 drawings and create a composition with them using the following perspective guidelines: enlarge figures at the bottom of the composition, draw medium-sized figures in the middle of the paper, place small figures at the top; show at least one figure overlapping part of another; draw at least one figure leaving the picture plane.

Phase 4: Still using pencil, students divide their figure composition into several sections, aiming for a visually balanced composition.

Phase 5: Students transfer and enlarge above drawing to final composition size. Using sources from imagination and observation students create patterns consisting of repeating shapes to fill in both figures and background and attending to balancing positive and negative space and different values with ink. Students are strongly encouraged to introduce personal creative elements into representations of figures and backgrounds.

Grading Policy

Formative and Summative Grading:

5% Formative

            *Daily classwork on in-class assigned projects

            *Bell ringers

95% Summative

            *Projects

*Quizzes/Do or Die

            *Chapter/Unit Tests

           

Academic Integrity:

Cheating, copying, passing off others’ work as your own will not be tolerated.  As a result, you will receive a zero for the project along with additional consequences, to include an administrative referral, from your instructor. 

You will be allowed to resubmit the project/assessment, having done your own work, for credit and showing mastery of the concepts graded on the project within two weeks.

Late work:

Projects will be accepted up to two weeks beyond the due date with up to a 10% penalty.  If you fail to make up or turn in a late project within the time frame allowed, you will no longer be able to submit the project. Failure to submit the missing project will be calculated as a zero in your overall grade.

Assessments:

Summative project assessments will be scheduled regularly to assess mastery of core standards.

If you miss a summative project assessment, it is your responsibility to schedule a time to make the project up with your instructor. Failure to do the missed project will result in a zero in Focus.

Re-assessments:

If you do not do well on a summative project assessment (less than 70%) then you may request to retake the summative project assessment.  You will be required to complete “re-learning” assignments prior to redoing the project.  You will be required to complete the activities and re-do project within two weeks of the original project due date.  It is your responsibility to complete the projects and schedule the retake with your instructor.  Failure to do so will result in the original project assessment grade remaining in Focus.
