Students will make a basket from fiber coil and yarn. This will take almost two weeks to finish. Exams are next week. Third period art exam is Oct.8 and 4th period art exam is Oct. 9. Words to know for the exam: 1. Contour drawing is drawing the outlines of an object with one line. 2. Balance is a sense of stability in the body of work. Balance can be created by repeating same shapes and by creating a feeling of equal weight. 3. Proportion or scale refers to the relationships of the size of objects in a body of work. Proportion gives a sense of size seen as a relationship of objects. such as smallness or largeness. 4. A vanishing point is the place on the horizon line where all horizontal lines seem to converge or meet. 5. The horizon line is the place where the land and sky meet. 6. Form is an element of art that is three-dimensional and encloses volume. Cubes , spheres, and cylinders are examples of various forms. 7. Line is an element of art which refers to the continuous mark made on some surface by a moving point. It may be two dimensional, like a pencil mark on a paper or it may be three dimensional(wire) or implied( the edge of a shape or form) often it is a outline, contour or silhouette. 8. Shape is an enclosed space defined by other elements of art. shapes may take on the appearance of two-d or three- objects. 9.Color is the light reflected off of an object. It is an element of art with three properties 1) Hue, the name of the color, e.g. red, yellow, etc. 2) Intensity or the purity and strength of the color such as bright ness or dullness. 3) Value, or the lightness or darkness of the color. 10. Texture refers to the surface quality or "feel" of an object, such as roughness, smoothness, or softness. Actual texture can be felt while simulated textures are implied by the way the artist renders areas of the picture. 11. Space refers to the distance or area between, around, above or within things. It can be a description for both 2 and 3 dimensional portrayals. 12. Value describes the lightness or darkness of a color. 13.The word ceramics comes from the Greek, and refers to clay in all its forms. Ceramics is the term used for the study of ceramic materials, both in the traditional sense of pottery and in a modern sense of oxide- or nitride-based materials. 14. Greenware is the dry stage of clay body that has not yet been fired in the kiln. 15. Bisque is the stage of clay after it has been fired in the kiln. It is hardened, and no longer water soluble. 16. Pinch, coil, and slab are the three basic methods for hand building pottery. We concentrated on the coil method in sixth grade. 17. Glaze is the paint like substance that is applied to bisque and fired again in the kiln. It turns smooth and glass like after firing. 18. Slip and score is the method for connecting ceramics while it is still in the moist stage. 19. Slip is liquid clay. 20. Wedging is rolling the clay with the palms of your hands to smooth the clay and firm it so that there are no air pockets in the clay. 21. Firing is heating the clay. 22. A kiln is the device that heats the clay. 23. Negative space is empty space. 24. Positive space is filled space. 25. Complementary colors are across from one another on the color wheel. 26. A tint is a color mixed with white. 27. A shade is a color mixed with black. 28. A tone is a dull color mixed with both black and white. 29. Hard edge painting is a modern style of painting with smooth brush strokes up to the lines without crossing over. 30. A value scale is an ordered arrangement of values from light to dark.
