LINO CUTTING FROM YOUR ORPHIC THUMBNAIL SKETCHES:




1) Our learning outcome has been:
to develop an understanding of Sonja Terk Delauney, Orphism and colour theory through lino cut printmaking. We should also be cementing our understanding of leading lines and focal points in completing these.

2) Our techniques we have been using have been: Practical knowledge research drawing of terk Delauney's work.Understanding context and Communicating and Interpreting: research information on Terk Delauney on our blogs. Developing Ideas: Thumbnail sketches with colour and annotations, refinement of an idea in colour with annotations. Practical Knowledge: lino cut mark making - two layer plate from one design.

3) The evidence you can provide would be photographic - your work pages to date and your lino plates as they are right now.

4) What worked: completing thumbnail sketches in front of you and explaining leading lines and focal points as I went. I would do this more next time in teaching you. What didn't work: not having a lino print ready to show you before you started the thumbnail sketches, as I think that messed with your heads a bit when I then said take one design and turn it into two plates.

I believe you have a good understanding of the geometry and play with shapes required to achieve the look we are going for with Orphism. Many of you connected really well about making focal points and leading lines a reality in your pieces. i will be working more on colour theory with you next week.


The five paragraphs above were written to this structure. It is also on the Tohatoha section of semester one. USE it as an example and USE it to help guide your writing.
