1. Mask Making ~
with paper.

2. Mask Project: things to think about
Everyone will get a piece of Stonehedge paper that they will use to create a mask.
This mask can be ANY shape EXCEPT it should not resemble the shape of a typical mask.
The mask should cover part of your face OR your whole face.
Examples:

3. Now lets take a more detailed look into the Elements of Art!
Your mask:
Your mask will need a few components. These are Elements of Art that I will be looking for when evaluating your mask:
Over-all Shape: Did you chose an interesting shape for your mask?
Use of Pattern and Symbols: Did you use shapes and lines to create interesting patterns and symbols?
Color Choice: Did you use a cohesive color scheme?
Neatness and Effort: Did you take time planning and creating your mask?
Now lets take a more detailed look into the Elements of Art!

Line
In terms of art, line is considered to be a moving dot.  It has an endless number of uses in the creation of art.
Line can control a viewer's eye. It can indicate form as well as movement. 
TYPES OF LINES
Vertical lines - lines that move up and down without any slant | | |
Horizontal lines - lines that are parallel to the horizon _________
Diagonal lines - lines that slant ///// \\\\\
Zigzag lines - lines made from a combination of diagonal lines /\/\/\/\/\/\
Curved lines - Lines that change direction gradually ( ( ~ ~ ~ () ( ) ) )

6. Line Variation - adding interest to your lines is important in creating successful artwork. Length - lines can be long or short. Width - lines can be wide (BOLD Lines) or skinny. Texture - lines can be rough or smooth. Direction - lines can move in any direction. Degree of curve - lines can curve gradually or not at all.

7. Lines in art
What do you see?

8. Line activity
On a piece of paper, write the types of lines listed below and draw what YOU think they would look like. ( Leave space in between the words for your drawing. )
Spinning
Bold
Angry
Calm
Busy
One DONE, share with someone beside you and compare your lines. Did you draw different lines?

9. Shape
A shape is created when a line is enclosed.  Shape is one of the seven elements of art and it has a variety of uses in the creation of art.
THE USES OF SHAPE
We typically think of a shape as a closed contour.  So, if you take a line and enclose it, then you will have created a shape. 
Shapes can play important roles in the creation of art.  They help to create complex drawings and paintings, affect composition, and contribute to the balance within a work.

10. All shapes will fall into one of two categories.
1. Geometric Shapes or Regular Shapes:
Examples include: circle, triangle, square, and trapezoid.
2. Organic or Freeform Shapes:
Organic shapes generally do not have a name associated with them.
Ditto is that you?

11. Shape activity
Since your masks need to be an interesting shape, one that is different than what a typical mask looks like, draw out some shapes that you may want to use for the shape of your mask.
Consider what you want the shape of the mask to convey:
- will it have angry lines and be jagged?
- or calm lines and be flowy?
Feel free to use a combination of curves and points like I did!

12. Pattern Pattern can be described as a repeating unit of shape or line.
Pattern refers to the repetition or reoccurrence of a design element, exact or varied, which establishes a visual beat.

13. Patterns

14. Pattern activity
You are going to create three different types of patterns label them anywhere on a piece of paper and leave space to draw your pattern by the label:
LINE
- create a pattern using lines! //\\//\\//\\//\\//\\ ////\\\\////\\\\////\\\\
SHAPE
- create a pattern using shapes! oOoOoOoOoOoOo <><><><><><><><>
Line and Shape
- create a pattern using both! /o\o/o\o/o\o/o\ <>|<>|<>|<>|<>

15. symbols
A symbol is a mark, sign, or word that indicates, signifies, or is understood as representing an idea, object, or relationship.
Something that represents or suggests something else. Symbols often take the form of words, visual images, or gestures that are used to convey ideas and beliefs.
They can have literal as well as figurative meanings.

16. Celtic Symbols

18. Create your own symbols!
Think about: what things are important to you?
What are your favorite hobbies, books, movies, TV shows, subjects, animals, etc?
How can you show these in the form of symbols using line, shape, and pattern?
First, create a list of your favorite things:
Harry Potter, Cats, Doctor Who, Art, Japan, Sakura Flowers, K-Pop, Owls
Then, pick a few to create symbols for: (think of the use of Line and Pattern)
/|\ =^.^= //\\ //\\
/_|_\ ( )~ = =

19. Color theory
Color is the Element of Art that refers to reflected light. 
Color has an affect over how we feel about objects, how we behave, and how our bodies react to circumstances.
- Blue is a calming color while Yellow is an energetic color.
We are going to look at 3 parts of Color Theory - The color wheel, color value, and color schemes.

20. Color wheel
The primary colors are red, yellow, and blue.  They are called primary for a couple of reasons. 
First, no two colors can be mixed to create a primary color. In other words, primary colors can only be created through the use of natural pigments. 
Secondly, all other colors found on the color wheel can be created by mixing primary colors together.
The secondary colors are orange, green, and purple.  Secondary colors are created by mixing equal parts of any two primary colors. 
Yellow and blue will give you green. 
Red and blue will create purple(violet). 
Red and yellow will give you orange.
Tertiary colors are created by mixing equal parts of a secondary color and a primary color together.  There are six tertiary colors- red-purple, red-orange, blue-green, yellow-green, blue-purple, and yellow-orange.  Notice that the proper way to refer to tertiary colors is by listing the primary color first and the secondary color, second.

21. Color Values The second part of color theory deals with color values.
Value is the darkness or lightness of a color.  When dealing with pure color (hue), value can be affected by adding white or black to a color. 
Adding white to a color produces a tint...
Adding black to a color produces a shade...

22. Color schemes The third part of color theory deals with color schemes.
Color schemes are ways colors are put together in an intelligent way.
Monochromatic- literally means one (mono) color (chroma).  A monochromatic  color scheme is made up of one color and it’s shades and tints.
Analogous colors- are colors that are next to each other on the color wheel.   When used as a color scheme, analogous colors can be dramatic.
Ex: Blue, blue-green, green, and yellow-green; red, red-purple, purple, blue-purple.

23. Complementary Colors- are colors found directly across from each other on the color wheel. Complementary color scheme provide strong contrast. Ex: Blue and orange, red and green, yellow-green and red-purple. Color Triads- consist of three colors found on the color wheel that are equally spaced apart from each other. Ex: Red, blue and yellow or orange, green and purple. Split Complementary- color schemes are made up of a color and it’s complements closest analogous colors. Ex: Blue, yellow-orange and red-orange. Red-orange, red-purple, green.

24. Examples of color scheme art
Analogous: Yellow, Orange, Green Monochromatic: Blue Triad: Purple, Green, Orange

25. Your turn!
Using colored pencils, pens, or markers (anything with color options) create a scene using one of the Color Schemes:
Monochromatic – showing value with 1 color.
Analogous – (2 to 4) colors that are next to each other on the color wheel.
Complementary – 2 colors that are directly across from one another on the wheel.
Triads – 3 colors that are equally spaced from each other on the wheel.
Split Complementary – a color and the 2 colors on either side of it’s complimentary color.
Your scene can be of ANYTHING! ~ Use the books or print outs in the class for ideas.
You may want to sketch out your scene first, but this is just practice and won’t be marked.
Possible Scenes: Rain Forest, Jungle, Beach, Haunted House, Park.

28. All about Masks
A mask is an object normally worn on the face, typically for protection, disguise, performance, or entertainment. Masks have been used for both ceremonial and practical purposes. 
The use of masks in rituals or ceremonies is a very ancient human practice across the world, although masks can also be worn in hunting, in sports, in feasts, in wars – or simply used as ornamentation.
Throughout the world, masks are used for their expressive power as a feature of masked performance - both ritually and in various theatre traditions.

29. Masks

30. Lets get started! BEFORE YOU START: Remember what I am looking for..
Before you work on your mask, sketch out a rough design of what you want your mask to look like.
use the examples you already created for the various activities we did to help guide you. (line, shape, pattern, symbol, color)
once you think you have the design you want, show it to me, then I will give you suggestions and your Stonehedge paper to start your mask!
BEFORE YOU START:
Remember what I am looking for..

31. Evaluation
