Art 1: Painting Challenge
We will begin by taking notes on Color Theory.  These concepts should not be new to you.
​Here's a short video to remind you. 
Painting 1:   Flat Areas of Color
When people start painting, some of the hardest things to learn to see are the changes in color that a three dimensional object has when exposed to light.  Highlights and shadows are very important to portraying something accurately.  This painting assignment helps painters to see the variety of color in each subject matter. 

1. Take a pen and outline each color change in your resource photo into a definite shape.  

2. If the color change is gradual, you will make a judgement as to where the color breakdown should go.
 
3. Each area that you paint will be a flat shape, but put all together, you will be able to visualize the three-dimensionality of the object.

4. This project becomes a first step in being comfortable with value (lights and darks) in painting.  
You may choose a portrait or a still life as your subject matter.
Painting size: 12x12.


Painting 2:  Blended Color Painting 
1. Check out the work of Illinois artist Karen Appleton at ​http://www.karenappleton.com/

2. ​Using her work as inspiration, you will either repaint the same subject as you did in Painting 1 OR choose another subject and create a "painterly" blended color painting, much like Ms. Appleton.
This results in a much more three dimensional technique.
​

REFLECTION QUESTIONS:
1) How does knowing color theory help in the creation of an artwork?
2) Give your impressions of the two painting techniques you learned -
​      which worked better for you?
3) Did the order they were created in help you - and WHY or WHY NOT?
