Kayla Morgan- LHS alumni- talking about portfolios- showing her college portfolio. Former Art Club president Molly McNulty- (my friend)- oil painter, mixed media artist. Showing her procedures and art, talking about showing and selling your work. We will use oil paint on wood. She will show oil techniques. Visitors the next 2 weeks

Objective: You will analyze series of artworks in order to brainstorm ideas for your concentration. Todays questions: 1.How did Piet Mondrians work evolve from the beginning to the end? 2.Choose 3 ideas for your concentration that are a possibility from the lists. Brainstorm more ideas. 2.You and a partner will analyze a students concentration and tell the class about it. 3.(Later) BRAINSTORM~ Describe and draw how you would explore one of the ideas for the concentration in 12 artworks.

What is a 2D Design portfolio? The term "2-D Design" is used very broadly; a wide range of work can fit into this portfolio. The unifying idea for the portfolio is that the student focuses on making decisions about how to use the principles and elements of art to create works of art that convey meaning. In some cases, the "meaning" of the work may involve messages on a literal level (for example, graphic design, product design). However, "meaning" is just as likely to take the form of abstract or purely visual coherence. What's critical is that sense of deliberate manipulation of the visual tools represented by the elements and principles. The work may be highly technological, or it may be created with the most simple means. Any two-dimensional medium may be used for this portfolio.

What does your breadth consist of? Variety of materials Techniques Subject matter Exploration Observation Your voice Skills Practice Creativity 12 pieces Use of the principles of design

Your concentration needs to have a beginning, middle and end. The AP readers will have only one chance to glance over the works and get the plot of the story. This means that you need to be very clear and logical about the progression of your idea and have a distinct theme or storyline. The concentration artwork should evolve or revolve around the central idea so that each image further enhances the story or idea you're trying to communicate. AP Concentration Commentary: Clearly and simply state the central idea of your concentration. (500 characters maximum) Explain how the work in your concentration demonstrates your intent and the sustained investigation of your idea. You may refer to specific images as examples. Keep your idea simple. Concentration- What to write:

A body of related work Images growing from images Commonalities of ideas Exploration of materials Approaching concepts in numerous ways. Expanding on discoveries. Discovering your strengths and what you need to work on. Symbolic representation What is a concentration?

Piet Mondrian was a famous abstract painter, born in the Netherlands in 1872. His most recognized works are abstract paintings of colored squares, rectangles, and thick black lines, some of which youll see farther down. PIET MONDRIAN- example of artist evolution

But as Mondrian explored nature his own way, he gradually began to simplify and abstract the colors and shapes that he saw. This process of simplification and reduction would continue until he wasnt even painting from nature at all.

The rise of Cubism also gave Mondrian a means to segment and reduce objects to their most basic forms.Cubism Notice the brush strokes in this next paintingits about as expressive that way as hed ever be.

And at this early stage of his artistic development theres even an inkling of his future geometric abstracts in the dark black lines and almost completely non- representational images.

With additional experimentation, a sense of structure began to assert itself through his paintings. More horizontal and vertical lines appeared, with the occasional curves and diagonals. Later on, of course, Mondrian wouldnt have anything to do with lines that werent straight.

By this time, Mondrians work was fully non- representational, and any abstracting hed done from nature was in the past. He began to create all of his paintings using a grid- like format, painting squares and rectangles of mostly solid colors.

At the same time he began to shift away from neutral and intermediate colors to primary hues, especially avoiding green.

Mondrians most famous works are his paintings made up of pure red, yellow, and blue, as well as black and white, but for a while he used shades of gray as well, and even his lines were dark gray instead of pure black.

Over time, though, his artwork became cleaner and more simple. Strong fields of color dominated his paintings, separated by thick black lines and sections of pure white

Then white itself became the focus, along with a judicious use of accent colors (still primaries, however) and the same black lines to break up the space.

Mondrian then began experimenting with double and triple lines, criss- crossing his canvases with more black than ever before. That experimentation eventually led to a major adjustment on his part do you see anything different in the next painting?

Its fairly subtle in that piece, actually. Mondrian painted smaller squares of color in between a few of his double lines, without any black bounding their edges. And although it might not jump off the screen to us, unbounded color was a serious departure for Mondrian, indicating a big change of direction for him.

This final piece, entitled Broadway Boogie Woogie, reflected not only the bustling sights and sounds of New York City, but also one last leap forward in his evolution as an artist. As you can see, Mondrian completely emptied his canvas of any black lines, using instead squares of pure color to separate and delineate the larger blocks of white in the painting.
