A4: In the Style of...Task 1: Planning

● Begin this assignment by finding and selecting an artist to use for your work. Use the postcard (handed out in class), and/or visit the examples in the Visual Arts eGallery HERE

● Ideally you should work from your previously chosen

(A2) artist/ postcard.

● Begin by drawing/ illustrating a mindmap that shows at least 3 possible ideas for making a ‘response’ to your chosen artist.

● Then produce some initial sketches/ studies that help

to visualise your intentions. Add colour and detail for effect.

● Choose ONE of your ideas to use for your main/ final

outcome, which will eventually be a painting created on A3 (size) paper.

A4: In the Style of...Task 2: Preparation

● After deciding which of your ideas you will use for your main outcome, using a new full-page in your sketchbook, create a ‘prep’ piece. This should be a practice, smaller version of what your intended final work will/should look like.

● Try to be as accurate as possible, and use water-colour

paints effectively for higher marks.

● Remember to use ‘good’ process/ technique, for example working from the background towards the foreground, using a range of tones, and including fine line using stronger colour/ tone for the details.

A4: In the Style of...Task 3: Final Outcome

● After you complete your ‘prep’ work, you should then be ready to commence work on your final/ main outcome.

● Collect a sheet of A3 (size) paper.

● Draw a 1cm border around the inside edge of the

paper, and add a title, date and your name/ class name.

● Lightly sketch-out your work, working directly from

your ‘prep’ piece.

● Improve the sketchy line by adding/ using a sharper harder line.

● Remove your previous sketchy lines.

● Add paint/ colour using ‘good’ process/ technique.

● This final outcome should take approx 2-3 lessons

to complete in full. Take you time, be careful and accurate.
