NAME MANDALAS E. Lyon Lyon 1

Review – Last Class 9/8/2014  We folded our paper to create a lot of overlapping triangles  Then we wrote our name on it(last, first, or initials)  Making sure each letter touched the top & bottom of the page and connecting each letter to each other This way when we cut it, the name will stay together  We cut out our name so we had the repeating pattern of our name  If you were not here, get help from a friend(always ask 3 before me, there are more of you than there are me)  Now what? Lyon 2

Color Review  Warm colors:  Red, Yellow, Orange  Cool Colors:  Green, purple, blue  Question? Lyon 3

Pick a color  Pick warm colors to paint on your name  Hint: use a piece of paper are cardboard behind your name while you paint, so you don’t get paint on the desk(that’s never fun to clean-up)  After you have painted your name mandala find a piece of cardboard that will be your background  Hint: Make sure it is big enough for your name mandala  Paint that with a cool color Lyon 4

Some examples  Here are some pictures of examples  Note:  Your art does not have to look like these  The examples are to give you ideas of what you could do  But do not limit your creativity, you are your own artist, you are not someone else  Live as the original you are, do not die as a copy of someone else!

By the end of class  Have your name mandala painted with a warm color  Have the background painted with a cool color  If the paint is dry, glue the two together  If the paint is not dry, put your piece on the drying rack and make sure your name & class period is on both  Thanks! Clean-up your area and the supplies you used Lyon 21
