Which Elements of Art have the artists used to help guide your eye around the artwork? i. How have they used these elements to guide your eye around the artwork? (For example: Explain how the placement of color, or repetition of shape or organization of value create a flow to the work.)

How will your use of color and value contribute to the sense of movement in your artwork? What contrasting colors will you be using? c. How can you cut up and collage your papers to create movement in your background? d. Do at least 3 thumbnails of different shapes/lines you could cut/collage into your background to create movement! Step 3 Extension (if students finish within two class periods) Extension: Look at student art around our school Hard court murals: 1. Look at all the murals on the hard court. Choose 2 that show movement. Sketch these 2 pieces. 2. How does this work show movement? (Look at the figure and the background) 3. How have the artists used color or value?
