1. Texture and mark making

2. What is texture? The texture of something is how it feels when we touch it. There are many different words we can use to explain different textures. Can you think of any examples?

3. Different textures 1.Bubbly 2.wrinkly 3.Soft 4.Rough 5.Spiky /prickly 6.Fluffy 7.Cracked 8.Furry 9.Spotty 10.spongy

4. Big picture Take part in demonstration. Produce your own textures through mark making. Discuss work in pairs Level each others work Make links between your work and artist Karl Blossfeldt.

5. Learning outcomes All will know what texture is and be able to give examples Most will be able to create different textures by using pencil, black pen and black chalk Some will be able to make links to Karl Blossfeldt’s work and the accurate textures they have produced

6. Demonstration and task 1 You task is to create a page full of different textures through different types of mark making. The rules; Divide your page into a grid with 24 boxes Use 3 different media- pencil, chalk pastel and pen Select the correct media to create your texture Fill each grid with a texture. It MUST be DIFFERENT in some way to all others You must have at least 10 different boxes filled with mark making Points to the people who can achieve all 24 following the rules above!

7. ½ way review Look at your partner’s textures. Can you identify what textures they have created? Have they used the correct media (chalk, pen pencil) for the job? What could they do to improve?.

8. Level criteria To be working at 3b Grid is drawn neatly but uneven in places Between 8 and 10 textures have been created but 2 or 3 don’t accurately show texture Pen, pencil and chalk have all been used to create textures Work is smudgy in places because chalk has been used incorrectly To be working at 3a Grid is accurate in size and lines are drawn neatly More than 10 textures have been created and most show different textures accurately They have used pen, pencil and chalk and show some areas where they have mixed them to create accurate textures Work is neatly presented To be working at a 4c Grid is accurate in size and lines are drawn neatly More than 12 textures have been created and they accurately show different textures They have mixed pen, pencil and chalk together to accurately create the list of textures given and their own textures They have selected the correct media to recreate certain textures e.g. pen= spiky, chalk = fluffy Work is neatly presented

9. Final review 1) Why is Karl Blossfeldt a good artist to be looking at for our natural forms project? 2) How do the textures you have created relate to Karl Blossfeldt’s work? 3) Why is being able to create texture important in your own art work? Karl BlossfeldtYour mark making
