Canadian Painting Forgery Project:
Part A: Do this today.

Today choose the painter & painting for your forgery project.
Show your choice to me.

Copy and paste the painting in to a Word document. Enlarge the image so that it is about 8x10 inches. Print it in colour.
If you do not have a colour printer at home, I can print a copy for you at Staples (it might cost you $1 though).


Part B: Do this in your sketchbook - 10%

Write 250 word biography on your chosen artist (it absolutely MUST be in your own words).
Write a 100 word explanation of the artist's painting style (is it highly realistic? What is the artist trying to convey or explore? What kind of brushstrokes do they use? What kinds of colours? What are the atmospheres of this painter's work like: Sombre? Light? Fun? Eerie? etc.)

Also do this today:

Digital Portfolio - worth 10% of your Visual Arts 10 exam

Create a powerpoint presentation of all artwork you created this semester.
Due: January 26th.

The very first slide should have your name, course and title (digital portfolio).
Then create slides for each art project (large & small) that you have done this year. On each slide paste a digital photo of your artwork (for example: Tonal Shaded Drawing slide would have a picture of your shaded drawing and a couple of sentences that describes what you have done).

Here are a few slide titles to start with:

Shoe Drawing
Upside Down Drawing
Shaded Tonal Drawing
Stencil Graffiti
Letter Graffiti
Postcards
Deadvertising
Mixed Media Project
Etc.....

Hints: Each slide should be clear and professional looking. Be sure to spellcheck.
