Select an athletic theme such as wrestling, football,basketball, or track. Rough out a page of drawingssketched from life while teams or individuals arepracticing.

Try a cubistic composition with a predetermined ideain mind, such as an abstraction of figures. animals,still life, or music. Experiment with textured papersuntil the desired effect is reached. This could be de.veloped into a large finished drawing.Sketch a corner of the art room, a section of theinterior or exterior of the school, or a dwelling. Em.phasize pictorial representation through the use ofperspective.

After doing the necessary research, develop a seriesof activities in which crayon is used in a mannernot demonstrated in class, such as rubbings, trans.fers, batiks.

INTRODUCTION TO PAINTING

WatercolorWatercolor is a spontaneous. free.11ow big medium

whose colors range from very pale to very brilliant tovery deep. The traditional painter thought in terms ofwetness and transparency all watercolor. In this cenwry. watercolor is used in a less pure manner. for it isoften combined with the opaque. with inks, and withother media.

Transparent tuaterrolar is a paint in which the vehicleis a water dispersion of the binder. which may begum or glue. It comes in tubes. semimoist pans, orin dry cakes. Simplicity and directness of approachare two basic characteristics, of this medium. Inthis pure form. transparent watercolor wash is applied to dry. damp. or wet paper. taking full advantage of the color of the paper and typically givingthe painting a bright. sparkling effect. When thewatercolorist works in this direct manlier he musthave complete control of his design, since the firstimage is often the last one possible (unlike oils, inwhich the artist may work over the design again and

Tempera and gouache are opaque watercolor paintsin which various binders are used, such as egg. glue.gelatine. gum arabic. starch, or other colloidal me.ilium, Water is used as a vehicle.Egg tempera was widely used before the advent of oil

painting. Because tempera is opaque, the surface tobe painted is usually completely covered and areasmay be painted over. One distinguishing character.istic of all opaque watercolor media is their abilityto render extremely fine details. When tempera isvarnished, it may appear much like an oil painting.

Casein paints have an alkaline solution of caseinas a binder. which is produced when. milk is curdledby rennet. Casein may be used as a fairly transparent medium or it may be thick and opaque, depend.ing on the method of application. The paintingsurface may be smooth or textured. but must be poroils. Unlike other watercolor media discussed here,casein becomes waterproof when completely set anddry.

Oil PaintsOil paints are made with organic or mineral powders

mixed with linseed or poppy oil as a binder.Paint emulsions used in past eras dried very rapidly..

whereas tube oil paints used in modern times dry muchmore slow Iv. Oil; paints will remain moist for 2 or 3days and some will not become completely dry for months.The reason for the extended drying time is the presenceof retarders which have been added to the preparedpaints.

Colors can generally be divided into two groups: theearth colors. such at venetian red. yellow ochre, burntumber, raw umber, burnt sienna. and raw sienna; andthe artificial or mineral colors (semipermanent. such ascadmium yellow. cadmium red, cadmium orange, cobalt,or viridian.

Since white is essential when painting in oil, it is im-portant to know that the common whites are flake white.zinc white. and titanium white. Flake white, a whitelead. dries fairly rapidly. Zinc white, derived from zinc.has a tendency to crack and yellow somewhat. Titaniumis a good mixer. is slightly stronger, and is judged tohe the best by many artists.

I)IIAJTANTS, VARNISHES, DRYERS

A Mutant is a liquid which thins the paint and makesit easier to spread and handle. The preferred dilut-ant for oil paint is turpentine. Colors may also bethinned with linseed oil, but this tends to retard dry.ing and gives a inure glossy appearance to the surface. Stand oil is a good thinner when applyingglazes. Generally a good thinner would consist ofone part turpentine and one part stand oil.Varnishes generally consist of solutions of resin insolvents. or conked oil containing resin, made bycooking resin in oil and thinning with turpentine.Varnishes may be applied with a soft bristle brushor by spraying.

There are two types of varnishes:

Retouching varnish is a light varnish and is usually used while the painting is in process. Thishas the least concentration of resin.Datnar varnish is used to protect welldried paint.ings. It forms a permanent protective finish coat.

Dryers are substances added to the paint to cause it

BRUSHES

Acrylics are inure destructive to brushes than oils orwatercolors are. Standard bristle brushes 1 which will losetheir shape in time, sable brushes, or camel's hairbrushes may be used for this medium, although nylonbrushes will generally last longer than others. Brushes

must be wet before using and must be kept moist duringuse. Immediately after use, all brushes should be washedwith a soap solution and rinsed. If a bristle or soft brush.is used, it should be pressed flat while drying so that itwill not lose its shape.

musTANTS AND EMULSIONS

Matte medium mixed w ith acrylic paints will retaina completely dull or flat finish. It may be mixedwith the gloss medium to control the amount of gloss.

Matte varnish is a nonglaring final varnish thatbrings out the richness of the color,

STUDIO IN GRAPHIC ARTS(printmaking)(ouRsE DESC RIPTION

This course is designed for students who have completed a full year of Studio in Art and desire to takeadvanced work in the area of printmaking. In this pub.Region, printmaking is concerned with the art of usinglines, solid masses. tones, and textures in such a mannerthat many proofs may be produced or pulled from anoriginal. The course covers a 'variety of processes andmaterials for exploration. Since it would he impossiblefor the student to work in depth in all of the various areasof study introduced in this publication, it is suggested thatthe teacher introduce all processes early in the course, butthe student select his own special processes to pursue andmaster.

Students should keep a notebook of Glasswork andresearch. and a portfolio containing sketches, photographs. and examples of the various forms of printmaking.

25

Printmaking might be divided into two classifications:

Ili Printing by trans /erring images from a sur /acecoated with paint or charged with ink or some similarntedia, onto another surface. The character o/ thesurface has much to do with determining the process.The planographic, or surface printing process, is donefrom a flat plate: the design neither raised nor low.creel.

The monoprint is a simple Orthographic process in.yoking the following methods: additive, subtractive,overlay, cylinder printing, mixed media, or a corn'dilation of any of the above. This type of printingis often done on glass, metal, or other slick surfaceswith oil. or vaterbased paint or ink, and is thentransferred by contact to paper. Usually only oneprint is made front each design.Lithogrnphy is based on the fact that grease repelswater. In this process the artist uses a wax crayon,lithograph pencil. or wax.based paint to draw orletter on the surface of a slab of limestone or onalumirouti The surface is sensitited. kept moist.inked, then printed.

Page 37: the syllabi for advanced elective courses in at education ... · PDF fileTITLE Studio in Drawing and Painting; Graphics, ... Course Descriptions; Curriculum Guides; Evaluation; Grade

The relief process requires raised surfaces to receivethe ink so that the image can be reproduced onanother surface. Wood and linoleum blocks are themost common materials used in this process.

The intaglio process includes both etching and en.graving. Both depend upon indentations in metal orcelluloid to hold the ink, which will transfer an imageonto paper under pressure. In etching, indentationsare made through the use of acid. Engraving refersto carving or inscribing marks into metal, wood, orcelluloid with a sharp or pointed instrument.The collagraph is a contemporary intaglio printmaking process in which prints are pulled from a reliefblock a block in which patterns are built up in themanner of a collage. The surface is inked, then wipedto leave ink only in the depressions. then printed inan etching press.

() Printing by reproducing an image through a negativearea. The type of aperture determines the printingprocess.

Serigraphy is a process whereby a tine mesh, usuallyof silk or organdy. is tightly stretched over a woodenframe. The areas to he printed are left open, and thenonprinting areas are stopped out with a coat oflacquer, shellac, glue, paper. or a commercially pre.pared film. Paint is then squeezed through the openmesh onto the surface of paper. poster hoard. fabric,or other material.

Photography employs a negative film placed overlightsensitive paper. Light passes through the trans.parent areas and is stopped by the opaque areas.Hence.. that which is negative becomes positive. Thesensitized and exposed paper. glass, plastic, or fabric

Relief PrintingRelief printing is a process in which the design to be

printed is cut or modeled in relief or built up from a flatsurface with various materials such as cardboard. wood.or glue.

Relief printing is considered the oldest of the graphicprocesses. dating from the ancient Egyptians and theTang Dynasty A.D. 618-007) in China. in the form ofthe woodcut.

After the invention of movable type by Gutenberg in1436, hooks made their debut and woodcuts and wood engravings became the standard means of illustration.

Albrecht Nirer was one of the first artists to use thewoodcut to reproduce his drawings. Hans Holbein alsodesigned for the woodblock and worked with one of theforemost masters of the medium. Hans Liitzelberger.

Thomas Rewick. who was influenced by Croxall's wood.cuts of illustrations of Aesop's fables, was the first artistto give the white line wood engraving popularity and distinction. William Blake also used the white line method.Although his engravings were not technically skillful. theyhad a plastic quality and exploited the inherent quality ofthe medium. Blake is considered a pioneer of the tech.pique used by many contemporary artists.

During the 19th century, woodcuts were used to illus.trate newspapers. magazines. and books. The Japanesealso excelled in woodcut printing. which is probably oneof the most popular printmaking processes for high schooluse. In relief printing little is left to chance. and everycut is a result of a definite decision.

Linoleum Block PrintingThe linoleum block process is an excellent introduction

to relief printing. in that it involves the basic cutting tools,materials. and printing processes.

The student must learn to create in terms of negativeand positive areas while cutting the block. After he hasworked with a linoleum block, he will be better preparedto go on to woodblock printing. Unmounted battleshiplinoleum is fairly inexpensive for class use and is com-paratively easy to cut.

Demonstrate ami discussThe proper use of these tools and the process of reliefcuttingSeveral variations of cutting which produce patternand texture in reliefThe proper sharpening and care of toolsThe types of nibs and gauges used, and the resistanceof the material to the toolThe body weight method of making a print on fabric,using a piece of wet scrap such as old sheeting

Woodblock PrintingThe woodblock lends itself to a greater variety of tex

tures, line gradations. and tonal gradations, and requiresa higher degree of discipline than does ill,. linoleum block.Woodblock printing can be a challenging process, in thatthe student is constantly making decisions as he chips orcuts with or across the grain.

In woodcutting, the student must recognize that thegrain of the wood is an inherent part of the completeprocess and plays an important role in establishing thedesign or idea. Cherry is an ideal wood for blocks sincethe grain pattern is inclined to add character to the print,but pine and fir are easier to cut and less expensive. See-ing the grain pattern permits preliminary planning andan opportunity to incorporate it into the design. Inkingthe surface and making a print of it helps to show thegrain. The grain can add textural effects and movement,and if used imaginatively. the grain pattern can suggesta theme or a design.

DemonstrateSketching an idea for a print, using a bold drawinginstrument such as a felt-tip pen or crayonUsing a soft pencil, tracing the design onto onionskin, and including areas of the grain as a register toplace it on the block properly

Adjusting the register and transferring the designonto the woodblock by burnishing the back with aspoon

Discuss

The characteristics of various woods and how theseshould be incorporated into the designExamples of woodcuts by Albrecht Diirer, LeonardBaskin. Hans Ho lbein. as well as Japanese woodcutsThe process of printing with a reduction block

Wood EngravingThe wood engraving differs from a woodcut in that the

end grain of hard. fine.grained wood is incised with sharp1,ok called burins and gravers. The manipulative skillrequired for cutting the block is the result of long hoursof practice, and requires great control. This is a selectiveor high1.7 4pecialized form of printmaking which is notoften attempted at the high school level. but might be explored as an independent study.

There are many ways to approach relief printing with-out using the traditional me.dia. Creative results need notdepend upon materials and facilities but rather upon inge-unity. resourcefulness. and sensitivity. Other materials

van be used to give the student an opportunity to expio,the relief roce3s, A block of hardened plaster can beused for a plate, and areas can he removed with ceramictools. inner tubing or asphalt tile may be cut into shapesand glued to a firm surface in a relief pattern. Scrapmaterials such as cloth, cork, plastics, rubber matting,screening, and string may also be used.

Intaglio PrintingIn the intaglio process of printing, the image comes

from inkfilled incised lines, furrows, or depressions in theplate. which under considerable pressure deposit the inkon the paper. Two distinct techniques are involved in theintaglio process: engraving on metal or other material,and etching on metal. Engraving is considered one of themost highly skilled methods of the graphic arts, and itstechnique can only be mastered through slow, deliberate,and diligent practice. Engraving differs from etching inthat in the former, depressions in the metal are made withtools instead of by the action of acid eating away themetal. In line engraving, the artist uses a burin (or anetcher's needle. if engraving on plastic) ; in mezzotint heuses rockers and scrapers; in drypoint (a variation ofetching). he uses scribers or needles,

Although there are many methods of intaglio printing,such prints are usually referred to as either engravings oretchings. Engravings may be done on copper, steel,aluminum, plastic, or lucite; etchings are made on copper,steel, or zinc. Although the appearance and general effectof both the dry point print and the etched line print havemuch in common. their methods vary considerably.

The art of etching with acid appeared north of the Alpsin the 16th century, Prior to this, however, goldsmithshad used burins to engrave decorations on their wares.The appearance of etching apparently started whenknights demanded elaborate ornamentation for theirarmor and swords. Goldsmiths, looking for a way toincise the armor, found that the corrosive action of acidmet their needs. To observe their work in progress, theyrubbed black ink into the bitten lines and discovered thatthey could preserve records of these embellishments bypressing the inked metal against a sheet of damp paper.

Through the influence of the great master, AlbrechtWirer, intaglio printing spread from Nuremberg, Ger.many and Northern Italy to the Netherlands.

Intaglio reached its highest development in the Nether.lands under the influence of such painteretchers as Rem.branch and Van Dyck. The former has often been refer.red to as the father of etching. Perhaps the most widelyknown etchings of all time are Rembrandt's Three Trees,&cc, Homo, and The Three Crosses.

LithographyPrinting by lithography was invented by a Bavarian.

Aloys Senefelder. about the year 1798. using a fine.granted limestone, Lithography gained popularity earlyin the 10th century. and it number of the great artists ofthat period, including Goya and Dautnier. made litho.graphs, Many of the painters in the Impressionist movement also worked in lithography using black and white aswell as color. There followed a period in which the populaity of this medium declined. But in the 20th century.it has again regained much of its original popularity andhas been used as an original medium by such artists as

Picasso, Braque, *1.6, Modigliani, and Kiithe Kollwitz.In this period, many painters as well as sculptors havebeen interested in creating lithographic prints. As aresult, new and exciting techniques have been developed,

The use, of varied materials plays an important role.Techniques such as toothbrush splatter, scraped whitelines, smudging, draping tusche in puddles of water,tuschedaden areas, and line pen strokes of tusche, are employed to add special and unique effects, The followingare good examples of lithographs by contemporary. artists:

Eugene Berman, Nocturne CathedralSue Fuller, New York, New larkWilliam Cropper, Paul BunyanJules Heller, FarmerMax Kahn. Blue Cat

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, lithographybecame quite popular with commercial printers. Usingstones, however, restricted the printing process to flatbedprinting. which is relatively slow. Later on, zinc plateswere used, which were eventually fixed to a cylindricalform so that rotary printing became possible. It is in thisform that most commercial lithography is done.

Lithography differs from most of the tither printingprocesses in that it is a planographic, process; that is, theimpression is taken from a flat surface. The process is

The silk screen print can be made to give the appear.amp of a transparent watercolor or the heavy impastoof a gouache or Oil painting. It may be in one color orin many colors. Its versatility as both all industrial andcommercial medium adds to its prominence as a graphicart. There are three primary methods of silk screening:the cut 4tent'il method !rutting a prepared film which isthen adhered to the screen the tusche method I paintinglacquer directh onto the screen,: and the method oftran,fering the image to the screen through photography.

Studio in PhotographyCOURSE DESCRIPTION

This is an advanced course to be elected after the student has completed a full year of Studio in Art. Thecourse is designed to help students to use the cameracreatively. to consider photography as an art as well as atechnical operation and a hobby. and to realize its poten-tial as a possible vocation. Although the student mustheroine familiar with the technical aspects. the ultimateemphasis must remain sy ith photography as an art form.

SCOPE

The course covers the development. the nature. and thefunction of photography. the creative use of the camera.and the various technical processes involved. includingthe study of the camera. film. lighting. composition. de.veloping. printing and enlarging. cropping. and mount.ing. The special aspects involved with cinematographyare not included. Teachers especially interested andknowledgeable in this area may develop such a courseand submit it to the Bureau of Secondary CurriculumDevete Tment for approval.

COURSE OBJECTIVES

To increase the student's understanding of the use ofthe camera. film, and light

To emphasize the importance of design in the coin.posing. printing. and display of photographs

To interpret the developing and pr:nting processes sothat the student w ill realize the potentialities andtations of the media

To give the student opportunity to sharpen his visualperception and become more fully aware of his en-vironment, through illustration and personal interpretation of subject matter

To encourage the student to express his feelings abouthis physical and social environment as well as abouthimself

To give the student a feeling of accomplishment andthe tangible proof of such, as well as the pride andconfidence gained through the exhibition of originalwork

To acquaint the student with the importance of theadvent of the camera and its use in recording history

To acquaint the student with important historicalevents in the development of photography

Each student should compile a notebook which includesall class material. notes on discussions and demonstrations. titles of reference works consulted on photography.and illustrative material and related research.

A portfolio of all mounted photographs by the studentshould also be kept for evaluation and exhibition by thestudent and teacher.

Each student will be responsible for his own creativeportfolio display. allowing for personal interpretation ofthe course. The necessity for student exhibits suggests asemiannual display or " photographer of the month "showcases,

Students may broaden their understanding of the potential of the photographic media through field trips andthrough contact w ith guest photographers.

Photography is instantaneous. Most pictures are re-corded in less than a second. This can be an advantageor a severe disadvantage. depending on the photographer'sknowledge of his media.

One advantage is that a picture ran capture motion thattoo rapid for the eve to follow. Photography allows

man to record this movement as either a sharp or blursimage. 'the camera can capture and organize details r. atno one conschnisiv perceives. Fleeting actions. suet. as afacial expression or the motion if an animal. ran also berecorded.

disadvantage of instantaneous recording lies in thefact that the photographer. unlike the artist, cannot changehip picture while the exposure is being made. All details.composition. and lighting must be worked out in advance.The plo.tographer trout t%ork in accordance with this con.

dition by treating every exposure as though it were hislast, by infusing into it all his knowledge, skill, and imagination.

Photography records actuality. A photograph usuallyhas more factual detail than a drawing or painting, andthus may he regarded as a representation of an acttul timeand place.

Photography is also a universal language. Steichen'sFamily of Ilan is an excellent example of a series of pic-tures that are universally understood.

The medium of photography is in fact so real that somephotographers, through various techniques, transform theimage from the natural or real to the supernatural orabstract. The viewer while perhaps unable to recognizethe subject, knows that it is derived from an actual sceneor object.

Photography is not governed by the rules of humanvision. Because the eyes are separated, they providestereoscopic I three-dimensional I vision. Most camerasare oneeyed, however, and produce flat pictures (althoughsome cameras are designed to produce special effectssuch as stereographic cameras, which produce three-dimensional images.)

While the human eve and the camera " see " the samesubject. some distortion is frequently evident in the photo.graph. The eye sees the distortion also, but the brain sub-consciously compensates for it. The camera cannotcompensate, though. and records the perspective (therelationship between an object's apparent size and its dis-tance from the viewer) as it is, according to optical laws.Unlike the artist, who can interpret and modify his per-spective. the photographer must alter or compensate for itmechanically. The most common method of doing this isby selecting the proper lens, viewpoint, and angle.

Photography exists within the fourth dimension. Theelement of time in art is an abstract one. Often called thefourth dimension, it is used extensively by the photographer. Photography comes closer than any other mediumto capturing and preserving an instant that can never berevisited.

Historical DevelopmentThrough discussion and observation, and by means of

slides, films, and prints, the following may be explored:

The history of photography before 1700, includingthe camera obscura and the " magic lantern."

The history of photography after 1700, including:the work of J. H. Schulze (1725)the first photography of nature made by J. N.Niepce (1826)the work of L. J. M. Daguerre (1835-39)George Eastman and roll film (1844)Thomas A. Edison's motion picture camera(1891) and projector (1896)Roentgen's disc.ivery of X-rays (1895)0. Barnack's use of the 35 mm film in a Leitzcamera

--- sound motion pictures (the " talkies," 1927)color photography as it is known today(1936-39)early photojournalism, beginning with LIFEmagazine (1936)the uses of photography today in newspapersand magazines, advertising, science, explora-tion, and other fields.

Photography asan Art Form

The Importance of Designin Photography

Photography in the hands of a capable, designconsciouspractitioner is an art. The general concepts upon whichthe elements and principles of design are haled are appliedby the photographer to create photographs of a highlyartistic nature. The photographer has at his disposal avariety of techniques and devices. including assortedscreens and filters, equipment for manipulating light, various films and papers, automatic timers and light meters,special lenses, as well as many other devices. The mostimportant asset, however, is a creative, perceptive eye.The alert photographer who both consciously and subconsciously employs the concepts of design can he A creative artist.

Camera

Demonstration and DiscussionThe teacher can present the basic essentials of the

camera through demonstrations and discussions. To fur.ther illustrate these, a comparison between the can: A andthe eye can be made.

The lens of both the camera and the eye collects, refines, and focuses light rays. Discuss how glassescan refocus a student's vision. Demonstrate with amagnifying glass and a piece of white paper how lightis refined.

The diaphragm and its function of controlling theamount of light entering the camera should be discussed. The diaphragm, unlike the selfadjustingpupil of the eye, mina be manually adjusted for differ.ent light conditions. After setting the shutter on" time " and directing a light into the lens, slowlymove the diaphragm from the largest opening to thesmallest, with the shutter open. Explain fully thefnumbers on the aperture scale.The camera's shutter functions much as the lid of theeye. Until it is opened. it prevents the passage oflight through the diaphragm. The shutter speedsshould be demonstrated using a camera with variableshutter speed. Have the class listen to the sound ofthe shutter at different speeds. The speeds may heshown by darkening the room and placing a flashlightbehind the lens of an open camera, then releasingthe shutter at different speeds.

Iiight.sensitive film located at the back of the camerarecords the image in an inverted position. Comparethis with the retina a the eye.
