I’m going to present unit 5 and unit 6 of arts and

crafts

BY DANIEL FERNANDEZ

a.- What angles can you draw using a 45º triangular set square?

And with a 60º triangular set square?

b.- Divide a 77 mm segment into two

equal parts, using your compass.

c.- Draw a straight line r and any point A on it.

Starting at point A, draw a 72º angle off

the line using a protractor.

d.- A straight line can create a sense of

volume. On a sheet of paper, draw a

composition showing this effect

e.- Look for a picture painted by Josef Albers which  he uses

only black and red straight lines, and for the picture named "Homage To The

Square: Glow" painted in 1966 by the same author. In which one does the painter create a

sense of depth?

a.- What is a triangle? Write a

definition.

b.- Describe the characteristics of a quadrilateral. What quadrilaterals can

you name?

c.- Name and define the important lines

of a triangle.

d.- What is a trapezoid? How is it

different from quadrilaterals called

parallelograms?

e.- Draw the following triangles and

quadrilaterals giving step-by-step diagrams.

Write simple instructions for each

step.

A triangle with sides that measure 65, 55

and 45 mm.

A diamond with the longest diagonal measuring 60mm and its smallest

diagonal measuring 50mm.

A trapezoid with sides measuring 45, 40, 35 and 30 mm

and a diagonal of 50 mm

f.- Find a picture by Richard

Anuszkiewicz that uses just triangles.

g.- Look for the picture "Grande Toile Grise

Pour Kassel" painted by Antoni Tapies in

1964. What polygonal shapes can you see?

h.- Look for a Basque Sculptor who uses mostly polygonal

shapes in his works.

i.- Look for Pablo Picasso's "Accordionist" painted in

1911 and Georges Braque's "Violin and Palette" painted in 1909. What movement do

they belong to? What similarities can you see?
