ART 1 STUDY GUIDE FOR FINAL EXAM!

The final exam for Art 1 will most likely be the last week of school (They have not released the schedules yet). But in anticipation of the quiz, I'm including a link to the study guide that you can print or study electronically. You will be asked to label an empty color wheel, and you will also be asked to label what Primary, Secondary, Intermediate, warm colors, cool colors, and complimentary colors. You will also need to know both the Elements of Art and the Principles of Design.

• WHY you chose it/ your inspiration (ex: "I have always been interested in the concept of fear, and how it can be equally bad and good in one's life." or "I am inspired by the contour work of several professional artists that I have researched online, and want to explore how contour line drawing can express a lot in very little detail.")

• Methods/skills/media (art materials) being used. (ex: "I plan on using mixed media, mixing acrylic and images from photographs." or "I plan on exploring scratch board as my medium, where I can focus on using lines for values and detailing.")

• Discuss size of work planned (does not have to be specific. ex: "I plan to develop pieces that grow in size from about 8x10" to 3'x5'")

• You are also to include at least two thumbnail sketches (rough, basic, small in size) that show some of you composition (layout) ideas.

• You are encouraged to also add an "inspiration wall" in your sketchbook which can include, but is not limited to: fabric swatches, sketches, magazines images, photos, words, poetry, etc... ANYTHING that will help your research and inspiration to come up with your ideas. :)
