@CouperMichelle @BorestoneP2M @BorestoneP7h Hello L. Thank you so much for sharing your information. I love cats and look forward to hearing all about yours. Have a lovely summer. See you in August.
@ChrisFerry8 Hello M. Thank you for sharing your facts. I can't promise anything about homework but I do promise there won't be any mashed potato next year!!!
4/4 Your task.
Create your own Miró inspired Constellation piece. Remember, don't think too hard about it, let the pencil do the work & see what you can make when you are done. Give your painting a title when you're done! Have fun & please do share your masterpieces with me!

1/4 Joan Miró 1893-1983
Born in Barcelona, Miró was a painter, sculptor, and ceramicist. He began art lessons aged 7. After art school, his early work was influenced by cubism but he is best known for his automatic style of surrealism art.
@BorestoneP
3/4 It's not known how Miro started his paintings but some shapes & lines are repeatedly used & adapted like the ones below. The video shows how you might start. The artist uses a collage technique to add colour but you could just use pens and pencils.

5/5 This was my second doodle, sorry, automatic drawing! Now, different folk will see different things but can anyone see the sorting hat from Harry Potter? Can you see anything else instead? Let me know in the comments below and I'll post my completed picture of this tomorrow!

1/5 SURREALISM - AUTOMATISM
Automatism is art made without thinking. To put it another way, if you doodle, you are creating automatic art!!! Here is a link to a video demonstrating automatism art in action.

4/5 Here is my first ever officially recognised automatic drawing. When I looked at my doodle mark's I saw these 2 figures emerge and went with them. I'm actually really chuffed with my image!
4/4 Your task
Dalí used melting clock images in sculptures too. Create a melting clock piece of art howeve you choose. I cut out some clock faces & inspired by the painting created this photographic image with my garden in the back like Dalí used the hills from his home in his.
1/4 ART CLUB
SURREALISM
There are 2 types of surrealism art and the artists we will look at represent both types...
1. Those inspired by dreams - Salvador Dalí
2. Automatism - art created without thinking - Jean Miro
@BorestoneP
3/4 The Persistence of Memory is Dalì's most famous painting. The mountains are from his childhood There has been no definite explanation as to the meaning of the clocks. When asked, Dali said he was inspired by a wheel of cheese that had melted.
@stoiridh@BorestoneP3M@BorestoneP7h @BorestoneM These are great, very surreal!!! I love the bright colours you have chosen to use. I look forward to what you might create when you see tomorrow's task!!!
3/3
Design a surreal creature with someone. Fold a piece of paper into 4. Each take a turn to draw a 'body' part on each section without looking at what the previous person had drawn. Take care to extend your piece slightly into the next section so you know where to join drawings

SURREALISM
1/3 In Art Club we've covered pop art and abstract art. This time we are looking at two surrealist artists, Salvador Dalí and Joan Miró.
Surrealism art emerged in the '20s, inspired by dreams, fantasy and thoughts we don't even know we're having.

Before we have a look at Dali and Miró, let's create our own piece of surreal art. Images that are surreal combine unrelated elements (things) to create a bizarre scene.
Using this 'stuff' I had in my house, I cut out bits to make this surreal picture.
