Monday 9/19

Today we read for 10 minutes
We then looked closely at Friday's mandalas looking at the layers of meaning.

Try to keep it at the descriptive level with as little interpretation as possible-
”There’s a 3 inch line that curves upright in the upper left hand corner” “yellow dot in the middle”
Instead of “flower on bottom right”--
describe the shape, color,size of the picture. Pointy or rounded edges?
Is this drawing representational or abstract? Complex or simple? Symmetrical?
Color choices? How heavily did artist press on the crayon?
Notice the little things.




Step 2
Now let’s see what we can guess about the artist when we finish the artist can tell us how close we come to the right answers.


What can you guess about this person?
Easy to talk to? Why?
Keep a neat room? Why?
Make a good architect?  Why?
Prefer people or things? Why?
More visual than verbal?  Why?
Worried? Serene? Assertive? Shy? Confident? Religious? Spontaneous? Humorous?  Why?
Used to drawing?  Why?
What kind of music might they like? Why?

Male or female?  Why?
