Abstract Art

Abstract art is art that does not attempt to represent an accurate depiction of a visual reality but instead use shapes, colours, forms and gestural marks to achieve its effect. from the Tate

Geometric

Abstract Art

The pictorial language of geometric abstraction, based on the use of simple geometric forms placed in nonillusionistic space and combined  into nonobjective compositions, evolved as the logical conclusion of the Cubist destruction and reformulation of the established conventions of form and space. Initiated by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque in 1907–8, from The Met

Project 2

[Assigned - Wed Oct 26th]

[Due - Mon Oct 31st]


Laser Cut Vector Design

description:
For this project you will be creating a BxW drawing that will be converted into a vector graphic and etched into wood or plastic


1. Using a sharpie or other marker create a pattern, drawing or abstraction, in a 5" x 5" square on a piece of white paper.
 
2. Repeat the process six times
 
3. Take a photo of each drawing. 

4. Upload the file to the class "Art116 Vector Images" Google Photos Album

5. Participate in the group critique
 
6. Convert the image chosen in the critique into a vector graphic using this link

 
Things to consider:
The image needs to be two colors only, black and white. The laser will etch the black lines into the material. The white is the material itself. Lasers burn the material. In the case of wood it leaves it looking dark and burnt. Plastic looks frosted.


What’s Due:
Six image files up in the class 'Art116 Vector Album FA22-2' in Google Photos
