1. Crayon Resist Project #2: Color

2. Resist The word RESIST is used to describe the action in which two materials or media repeal each other either chemically or physically.

3. In this art piece we are using wax and water based paint to resist each other and repel.

4. The repelling of the water in the paint with the wax of the crayon allows paint to be used between shapes of crayon and shows a black line around the edges of the crayon.

5. This mixed media work is using the black paint to show a contrast between the shapes of crayon and gives the illusion of a stained glass window.

6. Some artists apply the paint over the entire crayon area and scrape the paint off.

7. We will be leaving a space between shapes and then painting in the lines. The paint will resist the wax and only go onto the raw paper.

8. Step #1: Designing the poster and choosing a font or type

9. Stylized Design The mode of design called stylization means to simplify things to their most basic components.

10. Cartoons are stylized and simplified versions of real things. Sometimes when we stylize you can use less detail to show the same thing. For instance, if you were stylizing a bird and the feathers in the wing, you would simplify the number of feathers to a smaller number in order to see that it is a wing but not have to show every feather.

11. Make some thumbnail sketches on newsprint - Create a letter design on newsprint with stylized objects to illustrate the letter. Use the handouts for ideas. Work on border designs. Borders should relate to the letter in some way.
