  2. Our Noticings: • Bright Colors -Imaginary • Different Textures - Realistic • Illusion of Shadows - Movement • Abstract - Waves • Different Shapes -Scribbling • Different Sizes -Dripping Paint • Depth • Acrylics • 3-D • Chaotic

  3. Using Our Senses: Smell: Coffee, Food, Fresh Touch: Non Applicable Hear: Band playing in the theatre, other individuals communicating The Erie Art Museum was shining brightly the day we visited. It was evident that the suns reflection was displayed on the paintings, which gave it a realistic feel.

  4. Questions Regarding the Work of Art? • Which layer or idea did he start with? • How did he know when he was finished? • How did Green make his abstract art so realistic? • What inspires him to make this art? Is it based on actual oceans or are they made from memory? • Why did oceans impact him? Why doesn’t he paint what is under the ocean instead of what is just on top? • Does he have a message in his pieces? Or did he do it for pleasure?

  5. Historical: Type of Art • 1980’s- Graffiti like work • Trompe-l’oeil - realistic paintings to create optical illusions • Abstract Geometric Frames - highlights and shadowing to create illusions with wood

  6. Historical: Similarities Continued • Green states that his new paintings are “based off intuition from past experience not a conscious decision to pant oceans.” • Evolution of paintings over time • Inspired by Jazz & how it goes with the flow • All work is flat • No technology involved

  7. Social: Studio • Process of Art= Cleanliness • Vorrenspinde sense of Aesthetic Harmony • Work space & Watching space

  8. Lines of Inquiry • How has George D. Green’s use of illusions changed over time? • Where can example of illusions be observed in our every day life? • Why had he moved from painting to photography? • What techniques does he use to make the wood appear so realistic

  9. Personal/ Curricular Connections • We can all agree that we are not the most talented at art, therefore we really liked how it was chaotic and random. • The colors and texture in his earlier work really grabbed our attention. • We were really interested in the concept of layering • Aesthetic education encourages children to step out of their comfort zone but stay true to their colors, which Green does in his artwork. • It was hard enough for us to make a 3-D clay character so we really appreciate his talents of making three dimensional artwork on a flat canvas.

  10. Experiential Activities • Teach students about abstract art and create their own using a canvas and acrylics. Also, you can include terminology such as layering, shapes designs, and patterns. • http://artlessonsforkids.me/2011/02/27/gorgeous-abstract-art-in-grade-seven/
