Week of March 25-29

     Visual art and music have gone hand in hand for a long time. In our digital age, the album cover has been deemed a bit less important for sales and more for theme of the group or album. I remember as a child going to the old Kmart with my parents and browsing the record section. The album covers excited, frightened, & interested me all at once. What most people don't understand is that to produce some of these covers it took a lot of time in an artist's life. Regardless if photographed or not, these album covers ARE art. This week in the art room we are paying tribute to just that.

1- 2D/3D: "Album Cover as Art". Students are to create an imaginary cover for a real musical act. The cover must have the following: 1- Acts names or logo, 2- Album title, 3- original artwork IN COLOR. Most album covers are square in nature. Please keep this in mind. Project is due March 29th.
BREAKFAST
2- New Media: "Reworked Childhood Photography". Students are to take an actual childhood photograph and recreate it. Images must to shown side by side. iOS & Android apps will be allowed to be used for this collage idea. Images must be emailed to me by 11:59 March 28.

3- Planning
4- 2D/3D: "Album Cover as Art". Students are to create an imaginary cover for a real musical act. The cover must have the following: 1- Acts names or logo, 2- Album title, 3- original artwork IN COLOR. Most album covers are square in nature. Please keep this in mind. Project is due March 29th.
5- Advanced Art: "Album Cover as Art". Students are to create an imaginary cover for a real musical act. The cover must have the following: 1- Acts names or logo, 2- Album title, 3- original artwork IN COLOR. Most album covers are square in nature. Please keep this in mind. Project is due March 29th.
6- AP Art Studio: Continued portfolio work.
7- Art I: "Complementary Color Flowers". Students will create an image (either pastel or paint) of multiple flowers in complement. There must be at least three representations of each flower or color in the image.

As Always,
