Today we will be doing a skill-builder. A skill-builder is a type of mini-lesson everyone tries. The purpose is to improve art skills or art knowledge
Studio Habit of Mind: Observe, Develop Craft
 |  |
Today we are going to look at how artists work in DRAWING. Let's take a glimpse into artist Joan Jonas' Studio. What activity does Joan compare to drawing? Does Joan believe we can get better at drawing?
We have become familiar with several types of drawing materials:
Portrait
We have become familiar with several types of subjects artists draw:
*what is a subject in art?
*what is a subject in art?
Portrait
Landscape
Still-life-is a work of art depicting mostly inanimate (not alive) subject matter, typically commonplace objects which are either natural (food, flowers, plants, rocks, shells, etc.) or human-made (drinking glasses, books, vases, jewelry, coins, etc.).
Cityscape
Abstract-art that does not attempt to represent external reality, but seeks to achieve its effect using shapes, forms, colors, and textures.
Realistic-representing familiar things in a way that is accurate or true to life

Keystage 1&2
Observational Drawing:
Observational art is to draw or paint a subject as accurately as possible.
The subject may be a still life, figure model, portrait or landscape and the image must be created from real life rather than a photograph or the artist's imagination.
The artist studies the subject on its own terms.
Draw what you see, not what you think.
Keystage 2
Thumbnails
Thumbnail sketches are quick, abbreviated drawings, usually done very rapidly and with no corrections. You can use any medium, though pen or pencil is the most common. Thumbnail sketches usually are very small, often only an inch or two high
Thumbnails are a great way to plan your work. You might ask yourself these questions as you create Thumbnail sketches
Part two - Keystage 2
Drawing Skill Builder--One point perspective
A drawing has one-point perspective when it contains only one vanishing point on the horizon line. This type of perspective is typically used for images of roads, railway tracks, hallways, or buildings viewed so that the front is directly facing the viewer. ... These parallel lines converge at the vanishing point.
When creating One Point Perspective, there is a vanishing point.
Vanishing Point:
Today we are doing another Skill-Builder. In your book, you will try One Point Perspective.
Once you have drawn basic One Point Perspective try to expand this learning with color and details.

Observational Drawing:
Compare these two images. Which was done by observation and which was done from memory?

Thumbnails are a great way to plan your work. You might ask yourself these questions as you create Thumbnail sketches
- What is the size and placement of each element?
- What is overall dimensions and shape? … Portrait, landscape, or square?
- How about the negative and positive shapes?
- Are things going to cropped?
- Where is your light source coming from?
- How are your cast shadows adding to the composition?

These parallel lines converge at the vanishing point.
When creating One Point Perspective, there is a vanishing point.
Vanishing Point:
- 1.the point at which receding parallel lines viewed in perspective appear to converge.
- 2.the point at which something that has been growing smaller or increasingly faint disappears altogether.
Today we are doing another Skill-Builder. In your book, you will try One Point Perspective.
You will need a sharpened pencil and ruler.
Once you have drawn basic One Point Perspective try to expand this learning with color and details.
