  11. Thursday 11/14/13 Aim: How can you begin your final symbolic portrait Chinese Brush Painting? Do Now: In Japan, the art of painting with ink is called Sumi-e. Both cultures create paintings about the beauty of nature. Create a Japanese Haiku about your symbolic self-portrait. A haiku is a Japanese poem, with a total of 17 syllables. The first line is 5 syllables, the second is 7, and the third is 5. Homework: Due Thursday: Create a drawing in your sketchbook of the animal, insect or flower that represents yourself. Draw it within a background that it would belong in. Color it realistically.

  12. #ThrowbackThursday! Grazing Horse XuBeihong (Chinese, 1895–1953) Date: dated 1932 Culture: China Medium: Hanging scroll; ink on bark paper This painting exemplifies Xu's fusion of East and West. While he employed the conventional Chinese medium of brush and ink, his drawing technique was purely Western. Rather than defining the horse with calligraphically energized outlines, he sketched it impressionistically, integrating light and dark washes and uninked areas of paper to suggest light and shadow. The horse's complex pose-foreshortened body, twisting neck, and naturalistically placed legs is deftly rendered with a few well-practiced brushstrokes, while the layered tones of the animal's tail give the impression of movement. Recalling the tradition of the horse as an emblem of state, Xu's spirited animals appeal to national pride. He painted so many of them that they have become synonymous with his name. Xu made this early example for Qi Baishi's son when going to visit Qi's house. Qi explains in his inscription that Xu failed to bring his seals, which is why the painting lacks an impression. http://www.metmuseum.org/Collections/search-the-collections/49637
