7 th grade papier mache’ view samples of final illustrated project description (innovative artist emulations and structures). (We will hand in planning sheet and the final illustrated project description will be published electronically.)
4
Victor Vasarely J. H. – 7B Mine is like the other one because it has a light source and goes from light to dark. And the forms are tilted.
5
I chose Jackson Pollock because he paints abstract images. I copied his artwork by just splattering paint on my chair just like he did in the picture above.
6
Plan Sign up for an artist. (Each classmate must choose a different artist). Be ready to tell 3 cool things about your artist Choose a lettering style (font) to make 3-D Make a sketch showing which letter(s) and font style you choose. Show size (height, width, and depth) Make the letter thick enough to be strong. Show function (Doors? Drawers? Shelves? Seat?). Show how you will emulate the artist you chose. Plan your surface treatment Discuss your plan with Mrs. Sturm
7
Cut front and back Use cardboard and appropriate size for your project Unfold box at the seam Use a cutting board Cut in the corner of the cardboard You do not have to avoid bends After the first one is cut out, trace it and cut out the second
8
After you cut… Throw away any cardboard pieces that don’t look inviting Return all good cardboard to the bin
13
For conventional assembly Cut strips that are the same width ( the depth of your letter). The length of the strips does not matter Assemble to the back letter with masking tape. Start assembling the trapped spaces first Wait til all the sides are finished before putting on the front of the letter.
17
Scoring Scoring means cutting through the first layer of cardboard, so it is still attached, but now more flexible. Score once where you want the strip to turn a corner Score many times along curves Tape the strips to the contour of the letter Put the front letter on after all the sides are on.
28
Creative assembly Add shelves, supports, weights, and doors before putting on the front. You can also make up your own assembly rules
32
Put on your first coat Protect your table with newspaper before getting the “goop” Make the first coating of your project newspaper or plain paper layer Use index and middle fingers to “squeegee” off the excess goop Lay in a criss-cross pattern over the cardboard joints for strength Rub until smooth
36
Second coat should be plain white or the final color.
41
Surface treatment: copy your artist’s style Paint on blended colors or patterns
48
