I have been very impressed with the progress you have made so far. I loved seeing your finished projects for the last assignment. The next project was an idea given to me by a student and after letting my advanced class do it (which they loved). I figured I would give you guys a shot at it!
For the next three weeks we will be doing something fun and interactive. Each week from now until May 22nd you will pick a famous artwork to recreate, and send me a picture of the original artwork and your recreation. Here are some examples from Getty Museum, https://twitter.com/GettyMuseum/status/1242845952974544896.
Assignment:
Each week choose a famous artwork to recreate and using props or yourself as the subject recreate the artwork and photograph it. Then send me an email with an image of the original and your re-creation of it. You are not required to post it anywhere, just email it to me.
First artwork recreation due May 8th
Second artwork recreation due May 15th
Third artwork recreation due May 22nd
Below are some examples of this project created by one of my students.
Art 3 & 4
Your flipbook can be whatever you want, so it may have flowers blooming, or stick people interacting. You can have a nature scene like plants growing or waves on the beach. Use your imagination and be creative!
Assignment:
Each week show me the progress you have made on your flipbook (you can send a picture of some of the drawings you have done so far). The final flipbook video is due May 22nd.
