Home/ Students/ Artist in the Spotlight
Phase 1: The Search is on! Research Handout- due Wed 4/15
Phase 2: Show off your work/ Powerpoint
Phase 3: Project Proposal and Project Inspired by Artist
Phase 1: The Search
- Choose your artist and sign up for them on my list.
- Start by finding information entering your artistīs name in the search box at the artcyclopedia.com web-site to search museum, college, and other reputable online databases.
- Then, go through the Media Center Resourcese to search SIRS, Encarta, and other online databases.
- Then, if you havenīt found any resources on your artist, resort to search engines such as Yahoo, Altavista, and Lycos.
Phase 2: Show off your work/ Powerpoint.
While I think most SRMHS students have used PowerPoint before, Iīve prepared a handout with a few tips and a template you can use to help. The template has a tutorial on it as well. You can sign up for a day to present your artist or I may give one to you. I would prefer for you to do it on Friday 4/17 if possible. Otherwise, be prepared to present on Monday 4/20. Our field trip is Tuedsay 4/21.
Phase 3: Project Proposal and Project Inspired by Artist
You have researched this artist enough by now to become inspired by something he/she did or another artist you learned about on our field trip. You can do the same media, the same subject matter, or using a similar style (brushstroke, etc.) Give me this rubric with your preliminary sketch on Wed 4/29 so I can prepare for your independent project. Some of it may need to be done outside of class.
