Drawing & Painting | Macro Georgia O'Keeffe

  Macro Georgia O'Keefe Student Example Above The Macro O'Keeffe project helps Drawing & Painting I students to observe and breakdown directional lines, shapes, and values. This painting project offers students practice to build observational skills and color matching and blending with acrylic paint. The macro perspective makes an object appear more organic or abstract. This approach to painting is less intimidating for the students to replicate directional lines and organic shapes than an entire master work.  Materials:   Laminated images of various Georgia O'Keeffe paintings, square 3" x 3" view finders, Strathmore 300 series 6" x 6" Canvas Paper, masking tape, painting boards, graphite pencil, acrylic paint, paint brushes. Criteria: View the selection of images by Georgia O’Keeffe . Choose an image you would like to use for this assignment.   Use the square frame to create a macro image of O’Keeffe’s painting. Consider different compositions.
