Melissa Busse Rio Rancho High School Room 206 1:00 to 4:00 pm Audience: Secondary Glue, Hue, & Contour Watercolor Painting Description of presentation: This is a fun and successful project that will work with levels 6 to 12. Drawing from observation, students will learn to use contour drawing to create a glue drawing on watercolor paper. Next students will use wet-on-wet watercolor technique to add hue to the composition – the glue acts as a resist and will “guide” the students work. Finally, students will use ultrafine sharpie markers to further contour around the glue to bring the drawing to life and create a stained glass effect in the finished painting. This project is great for teaching perceptual skills, color schemes, composition, craftsmanship skills and self-confidence. You may wish to bring your favorite set of watercolors. I will provide student sets. This project is consistently a student favorite! Handouts, hands on, and student examples. Handouts - 3 hrs |

Digital Pop Art Celebrity Portraits Description: This project is one that I have done in various forms with my secondary Graphic Art 1 class over the past nine years, but it can be adapted to other age levels. Andy Warhol, in so many of his celebrity portraits, hand painted expressive color and details onto an image that had been prepared by screen printing a high-contrast photo of his subject onto canvas. Instead of screen printing, my students use contemporary digital arts media to prepare their initial image, create a water-resistant print, and then hand paint the rest using a similar style as Warhol. I will demonstrate the techniques we use with a digital camera and Adobe Photoshop to create the high-contrast “celebrity” portrait used by Andy Warhol in his famous series. Participants will then work with a printed image to create their own expressive color pop art portrait. Although everything you need to complete this project will be provided, feel free to bring along any of your own preferred drawing and painting tools and/or materials. This is a production-centered workshop, so dress appropriately for messiness !! Handouts - 2 / 3 hrs |
