- Consider the most effective use for each art material utilized in the assignment.
- During the making of an art assignment a person should independently investigate and learn to understand the potentials (and the limitations) of each of the selected art materials. (Studies or preliminary works to experiment with art materials is strongly encouraged)
- Generally each art material will have specific strengths when used in certain contexts
- Consider the following characteristics of each art material used:
Opaqueness (Learn which materials will completely cover mistakes)
Translucency (Learn which art materials will allow you to see through that art material allowing you to see layers of other art materials)
Transparency (matte medium, gloss medium and gel mediums)
Physicality (art material's characteristics of thickness and thinness when applying material to a surface)
Technique and Precision (some art materials and specific techniques will allow for more precision and precise use of lines)
Textures and Mark Making (convincing intentional use of textures and directions of mark making)
During art lectures for the course, all of the above information will be discussed. Examples of student works and video demonstrations of art materials by instructor will cumulatively be presented in all the art lectures.
