Here's my guide to the best virtual museums you can visit online at home from the comfort of your couch or computer. If you can't travel for any reason, this is a splendid time to travel virtually to a museum of your choice. There's an almost dizzying array of virtual options. It's not quite like walking through a museum. But it has its own strange pleasures.
"Great art is the outward expression of an inner life of the artist, and this inner life will result in his personal vision of the world.” - Edward Hopper
4th Grade Shaded Forms 4th grade has been learning about the elements of art, FORM & VALUE. Form is a three-dimensional geometrical figure (like a sphere, cube, cylinder, cone, etc.), as opposed to a shape, which is two-dimensional, or flat. Value is the lightness or darkness of a color. (this project was inspired by an awesome image i found on Marnie Hyland's blog! Check out their awesome art!) Day 1: I demonstrated how to do the project. (I project all of my lessons on a giant screen, so everyone can see.) We talked about value and how to make a basic shape look 3-d. We talked about light sources, and shadows, and I demonstrated how to shade and add highlights to their shapes with chalk pastels. We used chalk for the black and oil pastels for the white. After my demo was over, the students chose their colors for their papers, we passed out the shape tracers, and the students got to work! Day 2: The students continued to add value to their shapes, and assembled their backgrounds. The background consists of one piece of 12 x 18" construction paper, and one piece of 4.5 x 12". After they finished shading and adding highlights, the cut out the pieces and assembled them to their background. After they glued on their "sculpture" they were supposed to shade the "table" underneath the shapes. (This project took at least 3 45 minute classes to complete.)
