For Mahnoor Malik

Title: Three Dimensionality

Time: 3 hours. Planning for designs begins during the first class and is completed on the

participants time. During the second class work on the good design begins. Designs are

completed outside of class time.

Bridge: Image of a two-point perspective design.

Learning Outcomes:

Use one-point or two-point perspective, and atmospheric perspective, to create a 9” x 14”

abstract design of an interior or exterior space that has the illusion of depth by:

1. apply a linear perspective technique to organize shapes in space, 2. apply atmospheric perspective techniques to increase the illusion of depth, including:

• decreased intensity or saturation as colours recede in space, and • diminishing details as shapes recede in space,

3. demonstrate creative application with coloured pencil crayon, such as: • vertical strokes, • working in circles, • heavy burnishing

4. demonstrate understanding of basic colour theory by using a complementary colour scheme,

5. create value contrast by using a range of tints and shades of each colour without using black for shades, and

6. apply pattern to increase visual interest and/or texture to illustrate the surface characteristics of shapes.

Pre-assessment

Check for understanding of the elements and principles of design including: basic colour theory,

pattern and texture.

Participatory Learning

Exploration, discussion, planning, critiquing, and making to solve a design challenge.

10 Present the design challenge to: - use one-point or two-

point perspective, and atmospheric perspective, to create a 9” x 14” abstract design of an interior or exterior space that has the illusion of depth.

- include a complementary colour scheme and a range of tints and shade,

- include pattern and texture.

Distribute newsprint. Circulate, checking for understanding.

Demonstrate understanding of the design challenge and explore ideas by creating a series of thumbnail sketches.

55 Work with groups of 6-8 and ask participants to share initial ideas and receive feedback from their peers. Circulate, address questions, and check for students who are ready to proceed. Distribute paper with instructions to: - block in idea on good

paper. - after completing a pencil

drawing on good paper pause for feedback from peers.

Contribute by sharing ideas and offering comments about ideas shared by peers.

Continue planning.

Block design in on good paper. Ask for feedback when drawing on good paper is complete.

Day 2

30 Ask participants to work with a partner. Distribute worksheets for peer evaluation and self reflection and explain how to complete the worksheets.

Provide written peer feedback. Reflect on feedback received before proceeding with design.

Worksheets

30 Demonstrate coloured pencil technique. Circulate, address questions, provide feedback.

Practice coloured pencil technique. Complete the design with a coloured pencil technique

coloured pencils

Day 3 and Portfolio

10 Work with groups of 6-8 for final informal critique of design. Provide instructions to add the design, thumbnail sketches, and completed worksheets to portfolios.

Share completed work with small group offer comments to peers. Complete worksheet and add it, sketches, and design to portfolio.

Post-assessment

The final design becomes part of the portfolio and is graded with the portfolio. A portfolio rubric

is provided above. The design is graded out of ten marks as follows:

The 9” x 14” design: - includes linear perspective to to organize shapes in space in an abstract design of an interior or

exterior space, (2 marks) - includes atmospheric perspective to increase the illusion of depth, including:

• decreased intensity or saturation as colours recede in space, (1 mark) • diminishing details as shapes recede in space, (1 mark)

- demonstrates a creative application with coloured pencil crayon (e.g., vertical strokes, working in circles, heavy burnishing), (2 marks)

- includes a complementary colour scheme, (1 marks) - has value contrast achieved by using a range of tints and shades of each colour and shades of

colours, to increase value contrast, are achieved without using black, and (2 marks) - includes pattern to increase visual interest and/or texture to illustrate the surface

characteristics of shapes. (1 mark)

Summary

Review the design challenge and encourage participants to compare their design solutions to the

challenge.
