3 Artist Analysis Which artist are you analysing and why? Note some key facts about the artist that are relevant and /or interesting. How does it link to your work? Similarities and Differences. What genre is their work? (painting / sculpture / typography / print / drawing). What techniques, materials and processes have they used? Describe their work thoroughly in terms of composition, colour, tone, texture, form, line, shape, pattern, mood / atmosphere. You might want to talk about their work generally or choose a specific piece of work to describe. What do you think the meaning / purpose of the work is? Why do you think that? What do you think is successful about the work? What would you change? How? How will this work influence your own work further?

7 (C-B) Artist Analysis Which artist are you analysing? What is their work? (painting / sculpture / textiles piece / print / drawing). What techniques have they used? Why have you chosen this artist? (explain how it links to your project). Describe the work in terms of composition, colour, tone, texture, form, line, shape, pattern, mood / atmosphere. e.g. This painting has a flowing composition as all the shapes flow in one direction. The colours used are bright and vivid. Tone has been used to show the forms as threedimensional and show the lights and shadows. The lines used are strong and angular. the mood created is happy and lively. What do you think the work is about? What do you like about the work? What don t you like about the work? How could this work influence your own work?

8 (C-B) Analysing a Culture Which culture are you looking at? What examples of the culture s artefacts have you collected? (their masks / their artwork / their textiles / their designs etc). Describe the images in terms of composition, colour, tone, texture, form, line, shape, pattern, mood / atmosphere. e.g. This mask shows the traditional colours of the culture- red, white and black. It has a symmetrical composition. They have used wood and straw which have rough textures and rugged lines. Pattern has been created with simple dots and lines. What do you think the work is about? What do you like about the work? What don t you like about the work? How could this work influence your own work?

9 (D-) Artist Analysis This work is by artist, (name). It is a (painting-/-sculpture-/-textiles-piece-/-print-/-drawing). It was created using these techniques. I have chosen this work because -(explain-how-it-links-toyour-project). Describe the work in terms of composition, colour, tone, texture, form, line, shape, pattern, mood / atmosphere. e.g. This painting has a flowing composition as all the shapes flow in one direction. The colours used are bright and vivid. Tone has been used to show the forms as threedimensional and show the lights and shadows. The lines used are strong and angular. the mood created is happy and lively. I think the work is about, I like the way the artist. I don t like. I could use this work to influence my own work by using.

11 For Unit 2 (Btec First Diploma / Certificate) you must do the following three things WHAT IS UNIT 2? Identify the influences of historical and contemporary art and design developments In other words- Show which artists have influenced your work and designs. Unit 2- Contextual References in Art and Design - this basically means your showing your knowledge and understanding of artists. Present information about the work studied in an appropriate format In other words- present it in a creative way that suits the content. Explore historical and contemporary references in researching and developing own response In other words- Link your practical work to an artist and show how it relates.

12 Where do I start? 1. Decide which artist you want to research. 2. Collect your research- use websites and books to gather as much information about the artist as you can. 3. USE the research. Skim read the information and get rid of anything that is not relevant to what you need. Use highlighter to pick out the key information. The sort of info you need is - key facts- name, born, died, where from? - techniques and materials- how did they create their artwork, what s it made of? - inspirations- What inspires / inspired the artist? 4. First Draft- Read through the information that you highlighted and put it into your own words. Use thinking hats to help you to structure it. 5. Present your research- When presenting your research consider the following Background- add a colour, coffee stain or texture. Writing- use the computer or use neat handwriting (check your spellings) Colour images! Experiments- create some experiments or drawings based on the artist s work.

13 Since looking at the work of Zsofi Samu I have had new ideas for my own work - using a limited palette of strong colours. -using soft textiles- maybe a soft sculpture. -using more natural lines and edges. - unfinished edges - more use of line- see experiment with stitching. Create an experiment based on the artist s work. Remember to add notes explaining what you ve done. Green Hat- Creative How to create a research board! Here I have used hand and machine stitching to create an experiment based on Samu s work. I think the colours have worked really well as I kept to the earthy palette.

14 Get some good quality colour images of the artist s work. These are images of Zsofi Samu s work. I have chose to look at her work because I like the rich earthy colours and the textiles techniques (weaving, dyeing) are techniques that I have used in my work. Always explain why you chose this artist- talk about colours, techniques, shapes, textures etc. Red Hat- Emotions Zsofi Samu Born- 24 August 1973, Hungary. Qualifications- MA in Textiles Specialisms- woven textiles InspirationsTasmanian Environment Black HatImprovements (moved to Australia in 2002) White Hat- Facts Improvements- wider range of colour - different ways of using light - exhibit in location in Tasmania I really like Samu s work mainly because of the rich earthy colours but also because of what she does with the textiles- draping them, turning them into vessels, even making them into lamps. Good points- contemporary use of textiles - string colours - unique construction methods Yellow Hat- Positive

19 Experimental/sample presentation PURPOSE To show initial ideas and processes in a professional manner to a client or for portfolio. To allow analysis and evaluation of materials, techniques and processes. To include discussion on formal elements using correct technical terms. PROCESS Select base colour and contrast mounts. Trim work to be presented ensuring neat and square or ripped. Layout presentation and plan space for written analysis Select and make best work stand out Add detail to presentation e.g. ripped papers, titles etc. Stick down using pritt stick/spray mount. WRITTEN WORK Analysis of the effects of the materials The effect of the techniques How experiments meet the needs of the brief/aim Potential of the process including mistakes and improvements Evaluative judgements on potential for production/future use. REMEMBER To make presentation professional It s your written analysis that is being marked for grading BTEC Nat Annotations to Artists/ Designers guide When annotating others work you are showing the understanding of the artist/designer in written terms. It is really important to do this thoroughly as your course requires you to acknowledge your understanding, links and opinion on the work. You should try to research not only the images but gain context information to understand why the artist produces work he did. You need not labour and go into detail of the artists life apart from what inspired him to produce and the times he worked in and the influence this had on their work. This information will help you understand the actual work more and give you the context. In your annotation you should include this overview and then look at the artists work with this in mind. You need to annotate what you see, the meaning and message including any symbolic use of colour or object, materials and techniques, visual language(mood and atmosphere), visual elements (how the artist has used line, tone, form, colour, composition, mark making etc) and to what effect. You should then reference the work to what you are looking at and areas or influence you can take forward. Ideas for structure Outline the artists influences and back ground information Write what you see, what message, atmosphere mood you observe Look at the techniques and materials use and analyse the effect of these Write about the artists use of visual elements, line, tone, colour, composition etc, and what effect this has Reference and write how this links to your area of study and what you could take forward to influence your own work. Evaluation Guidelines The purpose of an evaluation is to summarise your findings and demonstrate in written form your understanding of the work achieved and what you have learnt throughout the work you have done. It also gives the assessor/examiner an overview of your understanding and reinforces all your annotations giving evidence of brief, starting point, research, constraints, selection, refinement, judgements, links to the artists. You should also include skills learnt and how you view the work and what improvements/ new directions can be found.
