Ad Reinhardt Value/Color Compositions
This project went through a huge evolution. I was wanting to get across many ideas, organic shape, value, tints and shades, and when I first started doing the project I had the students simply divided their oil pastels by value. The used different kinds of overlapping lines to create organic shape. That idea never changed.
I did this project again with layering color to create tints and shades having the students paint a number of their shapes black first and then have them overlap a color over the black and then in the white space to distinguish value variations. This seemed to laborious.
Scrolling down to the bottom samples, it is seen that the last revise of the lesson simply begins with cut black shapes on white, fewer over lapping line to create organic shape, and then using those wonderful water soluble oil pastels to color shapes in both areas. The students transformed the pastel into paint in this assignment. I had a smaller special ed class keep a black and white version of the project, they had done such a great job with the line cutting. The sample is pictured below as well.
