Georgia O’Keeffe Digital Paintings
Georgia O’Keeffe could very well be one of the greatest female artists of all time- definitely one of the greatest artists of the 20th Century. My students did a web quest on Georgia O’Keeffe, a lot of them gave them a summary of what her life was about. I had them explore some of the artwork that she made and together they collaborated on what her artwork had in common.
Georgia O’Keeffe Lesson Plan
Years ago, I made this Google Drive slideshow lesson plan that gave a lot more detailed info on Georgia O’Keeffe, but it also gave instructions to the students as they painted a watercolor painting of a still-life collection.
Georgia O’Keeffe Digital Art in DrawCast
Once the students knew a little bit about Georgia O’Keeffe, they started to download public domain photos. The goal was to utilize the How to Trace Photographs in DrawCast tutorials that I made. The students would trace three photos similar to Georgia O’Keeffe’s subject matter: Animal Skulls, New Mexico Landscape and Flowers. Here is a collection of some of their work that they made in DrawCast.
After the students created their three artworks, they would then arrange all three into a collection using Pic Collage App. The students could cut out and stack the various images on top of one another. They could also add simple effects or stickers to their collages. The final piece of art could be saved to their camera roll, and then shared with the class with Edmodo or Kidblog – so they could give each other some feedback.
Here are the written directions that I gave the students as they wrapped up their collages and had to expand upon what they did: Complete drawcast work on female artists
DrawCast also has a great option to export their art into a speed drawing to a YouTube video. The students got to pick their own music and I turned all of their videos into a YouTube playlist
How have you used DrawCast or Pic Collage to make digital art like these pieces inspired by Georgia O’Keeffe?
