Reflection- Art Lesson 1:

In our first lesson of Art we were talking about the sound of art which is the topic for the term and we were talking about what we think of when we hear that phrase and what are the key elements involved in it. We then went on to doing our first task of the term for art which was our title page and we were listening to different pieces of abstract music to come up with ideas for our own art. We then started doing our plan which involved us folding our piece of paper into four different sides and coming up with different ideas in each of them and then at the end to put the plan together to create our final piece of art. With the different pieces of music we heard, I could hear many different things, some of the pieces were peaceful while some of the others were quite fast and had an abstract beat put into it.  For my idea, since there were different kinds of music, I thought that I would have to different themes put into one piece of art where one would be a peaceful side and one would be more of a fast and rock genre. For our title page we had to include things like the key concept, statement of inquiry, global context and obviously the title so we had to fit that into the piece of art into some way. As we were discussing the key elements in the class to make a perfect piece of art, some of the things mentioned were color and patterns and making it look engaging to the eye so I though that I would include some of those elements and make my art look as good as possible. I think that the first lesson of art was quite productive and I was able to learn quite a lot about abstract art elements and what makes it really good.
