Assessment and Evaluation
- The painting should illustrate the understanding of at least three of the eight
demonstrated techniques and include a foreground, middle ground, and
background. The scene should be from their favorite vacation spot—imaginary or
real.
-
After everyone’s finished with their landscape they will be displayed for the class
at the next meeting. Each student will get five sticky notes to write what they like
most about that painting (without know who was the artist of each). Some
examples could be:
- the use of foreground, middle ground, and background
- similar vacation spot or somewhere where you would like
to go.
After students select certain work that they are drawn to for different reasons they
we can discuss the array of landscapes and how the different techniques were used in
a good way in each of the pieces and how personal experiences have effected some
students works.
XII.
Background
Watercolor is usually a media that is less controlled than other painting mediums.
Watercolor is activated by adding water to the pigment unlike many other painting materials.
The more water you add to pigment the more transparent and lighter the paint becomes.
Depending on how watered down you get your pigment you can get something called a
watercolor “wash”. A wash has more water than pigment. You can also get your watercolor
very dark by adding more pigment than water to your brush. You can sometimes erase areas
of color on your paper by just rubbing a clean brush with water over the area of color lightly
then you can pick up even more pigment by blotting with paper towel.
Depending on the time of day you paint in your landscape can depend on the
mood that you give the viewer along with what season you paint. Some examples are
painting before or after a storm, winter compared to summer, morning and night, etc.
Landscape paintings are done all over the world and by many different artists, it’s a type of
painting and is not specific to one time period.
