Après avoir beaucoup exploré la technique de la gravure de tampons à encrer et alléchée par les créations de Marie et Fabienne, j'avais très envie de tester la linogravure. Cela faisait déjà un moment que je m'étais équipée du matériel complet, notamment de gouges de qualité qui permettent une précision incomparable à celle des kits de base, il ne restait plus qu'à se lancer ! J'ai réalisé cette première linogravure sur une plaque de taille moyenne (13 x 18 cm), avec un motif inspiré des planches botaniques, un registre que j'affectionne particulièrement. Je suis assez contente du résultat, le motif me plaît même si j'ai cherché la difficulté avec tous ces petits détails... J'ai juste fait quelques micro-retouches avec un pinceau fin après impression. Ce premier essai est monochrome, l'impression sans presse m'a bien valu une dizaine d'essais jusqu'à trouver la bonne dose d'encre, le bon geste et la bonne astuce pour remplacer le "baren" qui me manquait (un couvercle en bois bien plat). C'était long et mon lino avait tendance à gondoler, mais j'ai quand même bien envie de poursuivre en testant l'impression avec plusieurs plaques, une pour chaque couleur, car le procédé est assez magique. A suivre...

Ah...gotta love those early finishers and those pokey little puppies all mixed up in one big ole art class. I have just that currently with my fourth graders finishing their Candy Heart Sculptures (they are SO AMAZING, y'all! I'll share soon) and third graders wrapping up their Heart Shaped Box of Chocolates. What to do? I needed a lesson that would be a one-day event, engaging, reteach the principles of art and introduce the kids to a contemporary artist. So I created this fast and fun lesson on street artist, photographer and fashion designer J Goldcrown. When the kids walked in the room, I began the video. While it was playing, I pulled those kids who still needed to work aside, reviewed directions, passed out their supplies and got them settled in and working. By the time I was done, the video was in a great place for me to stop it and review the directions with the kids. Here's the video: This lesson is so simple and effective that it can be used with students as young as kindergarten on up to middle. I gave my students the chance to use either white or black paper. Some kids enjoyed it so much, they made a masterpiece on both white and black paper. I love the work of J Goldcrown. It's been fun to introduce the kids to him and Chris Uphues. I love their heart-filled works! And these look so great hanging in the halls. I often get asked what brand of chalk my students use...we love KOSS brand chalk. I don't use expensive fixatives to set the kid's artwork. Instead I use cheapo cans of Aqua Net from the dollar store. Work just as well. Each kiddo was super engaged in this lesson which was fab as it allowed me to help those kids painting their hearts. You'll have to let me know if you give this lesson a go in your art teacherin' world!
