Look in the art folder on class conferences for a folder labeled Portraits.
Within this folder there are two more folders, one labeled paintings and one labeled Not Paintings.
Please look through them both.
In a post on your blog address the following questions/issues.
Remember to use vocabulary/concepts we’ve discussed in class and to use specific examples from the paintings to back up your ideas.
What is a portrait?
Choose three portraits, paste them into your post (include the artists’ names) and describe how the artist uses color, composition, and subject matter (objects, setting, clothing, etc.) to communicate something about the person whose portrait they’ve made OTHER than what the person looks like.
How do the artists you’ve chosen address the concept of portrait? How do they work within the tradition of portrait-making OR how do they reinvent the concept of a portrait?
