Chiaroscuro: Italian, from chiaro clear, light + oscuro obscure, dark

Compositional chiaroscuro is most clearly defined by artist's use of contrasting "lights" and "darks" during the Renaissance. The paintings of Leonardo da VinciCarravagio and Titian best demonstrate the use of chiaroscuro.

Each student must post and label: three interior space photos, three exterior space photos, and three portrait photos exemplifying this artistic device.

Assignment #6


DreSS Up

Brooke Cheney 13’

For my assignment, students will look online at different clothing and select a few items that will comprise their Ideal Outfit. Once the outfit is chosen, then students choose the event or situation that they will wear that outfit in.

This assignment would promote a positive web presence through this assignment. Personal style is very telling of a person's taste and aesthetic. Also, by choosing an event, students reveal their priorities and interests.

Grading Criteria:

·       -At least 3 clothing items
·       -At least one accessory (jewelry, shoes, hats, etc.)
·       -Photographs and citation of designer/brand for each item chosen
