  4. What type of movement would a zig zag line show • Change of directions • Could be fast or slow. • An obstacle might be in the way.

  5. What type of movement do dotted lines show.

  6. What can the direction of a line show you? • Whether something is moving up, down across, under or over.

  7. How have different artists used lines to show movement?

  8. Roy Lichtenstein • An artist who used comic strip frames as the subject of his work. • He was inspired by old comics that he read as a child to create large paintings. These paintings were enlarged images from comic strips. • The paintings were colored in by using a series of dots spaced evenly apart, much like the printing method used in laying ink down on the real comics.

  10. Do the comics we read today use line to show movement?

  11. Day 1: • First fold your paper in thirds. Start by folding the bottom up, then fold the top down. • Draw a line to separate the three sections. • Create a drawing where a simple event is happening that has a sequence of events. (i.e. an apple falling out of a tree, a superhero flying). • In each frame you must have at least one type of line that shows movement. • You must have a minimum of two different types of lines in the complete sequence.

  12. Day 2: Outline • Using the black marker, trace over all of your lines. • Start on the right side of your paper and go to the left.

  13. Day 3: Pointillism • Use your markers to make small dots to color in your art work. • Leave white spaces between the dots, but make them close together. • You can use two different colors to color in an area. • Do not use complementary colors on top of each other. (Red and Green, Yellow and Purple, Blue and Orange) • Do not press hard with the markers.
