We are trying a new format for our critiques:
Use this link to fill out three forms for 3 different artists. I will add to the form next time but I think this will allow mature artists to get better feedback.

Prompts for LP 6: Studio Art
Artist: Diego Rivera
Skills: mural painting, ceramics, printmaking, watercolor
movements: Realism/ Nationalism/ Socialism
1. Learn about the life of Diego Rivera: begin to study the intense political movements that surrounded him as an artist. Plan a painting on a larger scale by drawing the scene in miniature on a transparency. Try to interpret a symbol or use symbolism in your painting. (I like seeing you guys work in groups and partners)
2. Hero Project: continue from last month: consider using your finished work in the MOPA contest, Del Mar Fair, or California Digital Streaming Contest. Create a painted or handmade layer over a reference image in Photoshop and stylize your work so that you can throw away the photo below. Create a reversed image on an iron-on so that you can apply your design to a t-shirt after you print a poster.
3. Ceramics: make a coffee mug out of clay........but first research some really cool versions of mugs. You can make a pour-over coffee filter if you prefer. This takes a month to get back from the kiln so plan your glazes and add cool details. These can also be entered into the Del Mar Fair.
4. Stencil for Spray-paint or subtractive Print: make a stencil that you can use some spray-paint with. or.............create print that uses the subtractive method. Plan three layers to carve and print on different colored background paper.
Ask Mat for help and use a carving tool for linoleum or softcut.
