PERFORMANCE

Hand Modeling, Carving, Surface Dcor

Hand Modeling = Push/Pull to manipulate form, layering levels, blending edges,
order of detail
Carving = Tools, removing material, repetitive cuts, directional cuts, cut length
Surface Dcor = General to specific, small increments, final details last

desired results
ESTABLISHED GOALS

Hand modeled sculpture where the surface detail interacts with the form

LESSON IDEAS

Organism: Modeling abstract organic form inspired by nature

Feel: Carving texture into artwork that is meant to be felt
Thats not right!: Create a surface that does not match its form

ideas
ESTABLISHED GOALS

Art TEKS such as Digital, Painting, and Printmaking will be considered all inclusive TEKS. Painting and Printmaking will be seen as
ways of handling surface on three-dimensional objects and therefore will not have their own units. Similarly, the Digital TEKS will
be met on each assignment as students will use software to create, manipulate, and document their work digitally.
