color harmony

One of the projects I give my students is one that teaches them to use three basic color harmonies, viz., monochromatic (use of different shades of one color), analogous (related colors), and complementary colors (colors lying opposite each other in the color wheel). What I do is let the students choose their own theme, their own medium which they are most comfortable with minimizing my control over their form of expression. Anyway, here are some of the works they produced.

may sarili nga silang identity pero di maikakaila, bossing, na anlakas ng influence mo sa mga bata. yung huling artist, nakow, bossing titorolly jr yun paglaki (unless babae sya, wehehe).

Hi Rolly,

Very nice pieces of work. How old are your students if you won't mind my asking?

ipanema Thanks. That's nice to hear.

cbs I don't know about that. I don't think any of my students have seen my works except those who have visited my blog.

natjay Kung naging student kita, marami sana kong natutunan sayo.

Very impressive. You're so proud of their work 'no? And you should, you taught them well. I can't believe these are by freshmen high school kids.

dexter yes, I liked Gauguin's works. Mga polynesian women. He used to live with van Gogh.

bugsy I just let my students do what they want. My input is the use of the color harmonies. Sana matandaan nila.

auee long time no see ah. I've been visiting your blog for updates but it seems like you were on hiatus for a while. Nice to see you again.

i stumbled upon your blog through that of the failed misanthrope's while surfing online for art projects. i am supposed to come up with an art workshop module for summer that would last for eight days. i have been researching for the past two days and then i realized, how much difficult it can be - to teach. geesh, you can't simply pull it out of a hat. it takes a gazillion gallons of careful thought and planning.

haaaay, it's such a headache to even think about it. i wonder how art teachers like you managed through the years?

i suppose being an art teacher is a totally different world from being a practicing artist. i just scratch my head. oh well, back to my searching.

palma tayona Welcome to my blog. Saw your artworks in your page and I like them. What age level will you be holding the workshop for?

It's easier to be an artist than a teacher, I tell you.
