- You will be expected to remember the elements of art we have learned throughout the year: line (organic, or natural, and inorganic, or man-made), pattern, color, shape, value.
- Be prepared to answer basic color theory questions (primary, complimentary, which are across from each other on the color wheel, analogous, which are next to each other, and the difference between warm/cool colors).
- You will be asked review questions about our last two projects: Our Chinese Ink wash painting used line and natural imagery. We also discussed the use of calligraphy, or beautiful writing, in the writing of Chinese characters. We made a tryptic, or three paneled painting. Our Monticello Architectural drawings focused on Andrea Palladio, who was best known for his Neoclassical architecture. Neoclassical art is art that references classic Greek and Roman art. Thomas Jefferson looked to Palladio’s work to inspire the design of his own home, Monticello.
- You will also be asked some cumulative review questions from the year. Make sure you are familiar with the definitions for: self portraits, Gothic Architecture and its definitive components-gothic rib vaults, stain glass windows, and flying buttresses, and the difference between visual and tactile texture.
Happy Studying!
