  8. Cubism • Created with Georges Braque between 1907-14 in Paris, France “The Cubist painters rejected the inherited concept that art should copy nature… They wanted instead to emphasize the two-dimensionality of the canvas. So they reduced and fractured objects into geometric forms, and then realigned these within a shallow…space. They also used multiple or contrasting vantage points.” -Retrieved Jan 2013 from http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/cube/hd_cube.htm

  13. Abstract Snowman Materials: Pencil (name on the back) Cardboard (pizza box lid; 10”x14”) Liquid tempera paint in welled palettes to share (e.g. blue, red, green, magenta, black) Individual Palettes with white paint (styrofoam plate) Paint brush (small & medium sizes) Water container Newspaper (to protect desks)

  14. Abstract Snowman Brainstorm components of a snowman… ‘Draw’ with paint brush and black paint… • Start with a vertical line down the middle of the cardboard/page • Arrange and experiment with asymmetrical shapes and ‘fractured’ or ‘misplaced’ components to create the IDEA of a snowman rather than a realistic representation of one

  15. Abstract Snowman Value & Colour Mixing… Use a variety of colours and TINTS to paint the shapes and spaces in your abstract work TINT = COLOUR + WHITE (lighter value)

  16. Abstract Snowman • Use black paint and a smaller brush to add details (or to reapply black lines)
