Cells 3
I clarified for you in Art class this week what I expect you to be doing as you develop an idea for your painting. We have talked about understanding your Cell almost as if it were a personality and you have now pulled together its biography. Many of you have created a context for where to place your cell in a picture that will tell a "story" both factual and fictional about your chosen cell.
In your Development Sketchbooks you need to have the following for next class:
- Make sure your Cell is indeed a Cell...
- More images of your Cell (at LEAST 3) - you need to become as familiar with your cell, as if you were studying a person to paint their portrait.
- An explanation in your Development Sketchbook about where your cell can be found and what its function is.
- A story of your making that tells us where your cell is in your picture and what it is doing. Remember the examples that I shared using Erim's Goblet Cell and Laila's Strep Cell.
- Think about mixed-media techniques that you might like to employ. Some of you have already talked to me about paints, sewing, collage.
- Be ready next week to come to class and start this painting. You will complete a full sketch-painting in your Development Sketchbooks before you work on your final "canvas".
