PAINTING

choose an image, using your own colours mix and match all those you can see develop from the above, colour match and replicate the shapes seen develop the above by adding textures seen using a brush or a biro or pencils, etc use images as reference to aid imaginative work using the pointillist technique, develop an aspect of an image onto black paper working with shapes from an image, infill areas using 2 or 3 contrasting colours try the above with harmonising colours develop a small section into a motif and make a repeating pattern take a single image, using a tile, apply and impress to develop a replica of the texture can you replicate the textures using seeds, different papers, etc using parts of a single or a number of images develop designs for the sides of a container working from a drawing of an image, cover a tile with coloured slip and sgraffito a linear version produce a wrap-around pot, draw the shapes seen in one image around the surface and, using a sharp tool, carefully remove these shapes

DRAWING
using a viewfinder, select a section and enlarge, use pencil lines to develop the pattern / texture expanding without shading develop the above idea with pastel develop a section of this into a repeating pattern using newsprint and charcoal, enlarge an image and develop tonally across the paper, use a putty eraser to apply textures using a single image, develop outlines onto A3 white paper using a biro or felt-tip and infill backgrounds by hatching and cross-hatching try the same idea but use dots stippling use chalks, working on black paper to develop the highlights from one image

LOOK & TALK


describe what you see, the colours, shapes, how it might feel, etc how are shapes / colours related / connected? can you sort the images into groups, define groupings could you lift / carry the objects, arrange in groupings by weight, size, etc group cards according to similarities describe play snap stating the similar criteria what do you think of individual / groups cards

CLAY / SCULPTURE

REPLICATION
using a single card, replicate the pattern / texture in a single media translate above into a media that develops the textures and / or pattern structures look carefully at the images in this pack, start your own collection create sub-sections such as smooth / slimy / rough collect coloured textures red / green / etc

REFERENCING
when drawing / painting / etc use the images for reference especially with work involving pattern / texture / shape

TEXTILES
use drawing / painting ideas as a basis for a batik picture / repeating pattern develop the pattern / texture in stitches working from the shapes from a single image develop into patchwork or collage looking at textures / materials involved in the images, develop into a frame weaving using metallic gutta on silk, map out the shapes seen in an image, dye each area a different colour, allow to dry, overlay more gutta creating patterns in each area, re-dye these areas in new colours work into the above with a biro

PRINTMAKING
develop line work from an image into a sheet of pressprint, print in a light colour, draw further lines in the tile surface and over print in a darker colour do the same idea but this time look at textures using card, develop a relief replicate, allow to dry, paint white block ink across the surface and print onto black paper using a roller and the left-overs of ink, ask pupils to draw out the shapes and patterns they see in an image with the roller roll ink out onto a non-absorbent surface, use a pencil or a piece of card to draw into the ink surface, lay paper on the surface and rub, lift image

ARTISTS
look at the different way artists have handled texture in their work Van Gogh (late drawings) Jackson Pollock David Hockney Tapis Hokusai -

KEY STAGE 1
DRAWING - using a pencil and a large sheet of white paper, with simple bold movements, replicate the shapes seen in a single image - using different images, repeat the idea using wax crayons or pastels or colour pencils and infill the shapes so that they are solid - using chalk on black sugar paper, draw the shapes seen in an image, but infill the background leaving the object the colour of the paper - try the above but let pupils work from the same image but on different colours of paper - using biro or felt-tip or pencil, take an image, enlarge the shapes and then replicate the patterns seen within the shapes - repeat the above but infill with made-up patterns, ensuring that each area has a different pattern - using pastels, replicate the shapes and then infill replicating colours and marks, work on black sugar paper - reproduce an image using only pencil lines try white pencil on black paper - try the above with silver and gold gel pens on black paper PAINTING - take a single image, colour match the colours visible in sketchbooks - repeat the above but develop the shapes onto paper and infill with contrasting / harmonising colours - taking a single image, try to reproduce the patterns seen in sketchbook, work over the top of the previous painting - try the above but use a drawing media to replicate the patterns - outline the shapes seen on an image onto black sugar paper, infill using different colours for each area and different patterns - work as above but ripple the areas using the same colour but adding white to the colour for every ripple - try replicating the patterns and shapes seen on an image using fingers / twigs / clay tool / pieces of card / etc CLAY / SCULPTURE - roll out a slab of clay, using a single image as a starting point, take an impress objects into the clay surface to represent patterns and shapes seen - as above but this time use small balls, coils and other shapes of clay to develop applied decoration in the same way - using seeds, materials, etc produce a natural collage of an image - using different thickness of card, develop a relief of an image, paint with block ink and take a print - using a bar of fresh soap, texture its surface with ideas suggested by one of the images - try using different strings, glued to a piece of card to represent the shapes seen, roll with printing ink and lift a print TEXTILES - using fabric crayons, work directly on the shapes or the textures seen in an image onto fabric - using a tjanting, replicate the same onto a piece of paper and wash with paint, allow to dry and then re-wax and wash in a darker colour - draw with simple stitches the shapes seen on an image and then infill with different textures - using pressprint, draw the shapes to indent the tile surface, use different marks to replicate the textures, ink and print as a repeat onto fabric - using a piece of Hessian / dishcloth, create the textures of a card using different strings / wools / etc - pour Marvin Medium onto a plastic surface, spread evenly and then embed seed / sequins / threads / leaves / etc to replicate the patterns and textures seen, allow to dry and peel off the plastic PRINTMAKING - ink a non-absorbent surface with water-based inks, draw the shapes and replicate the textures using different tools, lay a sheet of paper over and lift an image - try a collage of an image using differently textured wallpapers and cards, ink and lift a print - try a 2 or 3 colour overlay repeating pressprint - try reproducing an image drawing with a roller, work on black paper and with different coloured inks - use cut card shapes, as seen in an image, inked and printed and then overwork textures with another media

KEY STAGE 2
DRAWING - using a drawing media, replicate what can be seen in a single image - using a viewfinder, find an interesting part of an image, enlarge to A3 / A2, replicate the patterns seen using only line any drawing media - try the above but work with white media on black paper - try the above with silver and gold gel pens on black paper - using charcoal on newsprint, replicate shapes seen in an image and infill with textures, use a putty rubber to help create these - use coloured felt-tip pens to create a patterned version of an image - working with coloured pencils on black card, replicate the shapes seen and then develop patterns inside using marks PAINTING - take a single image, colour mix and match those seen, develop a larger view of the image and infill matching as closely as possible - working in a pointillist way, using stippling, replicate a small area of an image - outline the different shapes seen in an image onto black paper, infill using different warm and cold colours - work the above but use harmonising or contrasting colours - reduce an image, fix in the centre of a piece of paper and develop the scene surrounding the image - using Fabric Medium, develop an image onto fabric, iron to fix and work over with stitches, etc - upload into an art package on your computer, using the packages tool, alter the image CLAY / SCULPTURE - roll out clay, cut a square or rectangular tile, paint with a coloured slip, and develop an image into this slip - using only paper and card, replicate the textures seen on an image by folding / screwing / twisting / etc and gluing to a base - create a collage using materials with different textures using an image as a starting point - using a modelling media, translate a 2D image into a 3D freestanding sculpture - using impressed and / or applied decoration, replicate an image - use an image as decoration for a piece of ceramics TEXTILES - using a batik, develop marks with a tjanting to replicate a linear version of an image, dye and rework before re-dyeing - using stitches, but with different types of threads, explore how the textures in an image can be created - spread Marvin Medium onto a plastic surface, impress cut shapes replicating those seen in an image into the glue surface, spread another thin layer and on each shape add a texture using sand / sequins / glitter / etc. Allow to dry and peel away - using different fabrics, develop a patchwork from an image - using an image as a starting point, develop designs in a sketchbook and then translate into a silk painting PRINTMAKING - using pressprint, abstract a small section of an image using a viewfinder, impress this into the tile surface, ink and print - work this as a repeating image changing the image so that individual prints link - work the above into a four colour print - work the above but start by printing white onto black paper - work as a multi-coloured mono print using hardboard and block inks - using card, make a relief of an image, allow to dry before lifting images
