Artist Keith Haring painting Grace Jones in 1986 on the set of ‘Vamp.’ Grace Jones was 36 in 1984 when she, Andy Warhol, Robert Mapplethorpe, and pop artist Keith Haring all converged in Mapplethorpe’s studio in New York City. The reason for the epic get-together was to shoot photos of Jones covered in body paint done by Haring in his distinctive style. The session lasted a marathon eighteen hours during which Jones was photographed by Mapplethorpe adorned by Haring’s body paint, a towering headdress and an ornate “skirt.” Orchestrated by Warhol—who had introduced Haring to Jones a few years prior—Andy had been wanting to feature Jones on the cover of Interview magazine and believed that an artistic collaboration between Haring and Jones would be awesome. And he wasn’t wrong. However, Mapplethorpe and Warhol didn’t exactly click despite Mapplethorpe’s desire to be among Warhol’s ever-growing gang of muses, friends, and hanger-ons. In fact, during the photo shoot, it has been alleged that Mapplethorpe attempted to sabotage Warhol while he was taking photos of Jones by requesting Andy not use his flash in his studio. Meow. Haring’s handiwork on Jones’ magnificent bodyscape was not the...
Every year I try to come up with a new art project for Remembrance Day. This is the one we did this year. This was with Grade 1 and it worked very well. MATERIALS REQUIRED: - paper for painting, we used watercolour for background and regular white paper for our poppies - disk tempera paint in blue, yellow, and red - oil pastels - black and grey crayons - scissors and glue - masking tape - black paper, black buttons and poppy seeds - printed paper with our remembrance day words PROCEDURE: I prepped art boards for all the students. I taped off a border and then a section where the table will be. We took oil pastels in dark blue, light blue and white and I had them draw circles in the large section of the paper. Some were very ordered and precise with rows of circles and some just scribbled circles all over. I found the scribbled circles tended to look better. The students then painted the large section with blue disk tempera paint. Set aside too dry. While our background dries I gave them some extra paper. One I crimped with my crimper for texture. On the other piece I had them draw circles again with black and/or grey crayon. We painted these papers. I used red disk tempera for the paper with the crayon circles and red acrylic for the crimped. I was trying to get 2 different shades of red. Set aside too dry. Back to the background. I took the tape where the table is and moved it up so it was on the edge of the blue background. Now with yellow disk tempera we painted in the table. I made up sheets of repeating words in different fonts and sizes. They were all related to Remembrance Day. We painted them with some watery grey paint. This is to make it less stark and darken the value (colour value) of this component. Set aside too dry. On the back of the paper with the words we draw out a vase. Cut it out and glue into place on the background. Make sure it is touching the table. On the back of our red poppy paper we draw some poppies and cut them out. You want at least 3. Before we glue them on we use green pastel and draw in the stems and one or two leaves. If they are different heights it looks better. Glue poppies on. For the centers we used 3 different materials: - black paper - black buttons - poppy seeds This gave each of them an interesting look and lots of discussion, especially about the poppy seeds. Finally we outlined our vases with black oil pastel and smudged it a bit. This helped to visually bring the vase forward in the composition. That's it. Great job Grade 1! Gail

Mondrian, tu connais? Tu vas faire Tondrian. Tout d'abord, nous avons observé des oeuvres les plus abstraites de l'artiste (nous verrons plus tard le cheminement de Mondrian vers l'abstraction) On se rend compte qu'il devait être copain avec MIRO,...

In Art class, 3rd graders reviewed the primary colors; red, yellow and blue and the secondary colors; orange, green and purple. Students painted a large piece of paper using the primary colors to mix the secondary colors. Next, they practiced their cutting and gluing skills to create these awesome owls!
Vous avez remarqué, comme moi, qu'on associait très souvent le bleu au blanc quand il s'agissait de représenter l'hiver. Pas étonnant puisque c'est la couleur froide par excellence.Il est vrai que les effets obtenus sont glacials certes, mais superbes....
