Your Objectives: • By the end of this project, you will be able to: • Explain elements of relief sculpture. • Create a sculpture using cardboard as media (elements of "culture") • Identify characteristics of the art of Clayton Pond and Pop Art. • Develop skills in working with color.
Areas of your artwork will be raised up, and not left flat. (think about a pop-up book) How is this project 3-D art?
There will be textural elements. Some areas will feel smooth, while others feel rough to touch. How is this 3-D art?
Where do we start? Your task is to create a relief sculpture of an everyday item, as inspired by the relief wood sculptures of Clayton Pond. • Brainstorm ideas by Journaling: write down ideas, and draw quick sketches of your ideas. • Think about everyday objects and images that anybody would recognize. (ie: household appliances, food, furniture, accessories like sunglasses, shoes, etc… • Simplify the shapes and forms so it is easier for you to draw.
