It helps you improve your own work and generate new ideas.

Successful artist research pages should include:

1. A brief biography of the artist

2. Pictures of their artwork

3. Analysis of their artwork(s)

4. Study of one of their artwork

5. Your own response

• _{It is important to choose a relevant artist. If your project is about portraits, you shouldn’t really be looking at artists who specialise in landscapes!}

• _{You should also choose an artist that you like. It’s no good choosing an artist if you think their work is boring.}

• _{Use an artist who has similar skills to you. Do you prefer drawing? Then avoid painters!}

  
  

Find out facts about their life and education

• _{This will show that you understand the context of their work.}

  
  

Find good quality pictures of their artwork

• _{This will make your research look more professional.}

  
  

Try to find out what their process for making art is

• _{Artists often use social media to show their processes. Online museums and galleries also share information about the artist’s work or techniques.}

  
  

Artist Study

• _{You should choose a piece of artwork by the artist to analyse. Writing an image analysis about art can seem strange because there are no absolutely ‘correct’ answers.}

• _{Copy their artwork or a part of it to understand their process more.}

  
  

Artist Response

• _{Your response to an artist or artwork should use the same (or similar) materials to the artist. You might choose to focus on their use of colour or composition or idea or technique.}

  
  

_{How are you going to develop your work using this artist as inspiration?}

1. Define Your Objectives : Clearly understand the theme or topic of your project and what you aim to capture or document.

   
   

2. Settle with your SUJECT MATTER : what is the focus of your project? A person? An object?

   
   

3. Research and Scout Locations: Identify and visit locations relevant to your theme. For instance, a botanical garden for plant life, or a bustling market for capturing vibrant human interactions and objects.

   
   

4. Prepare Your Tools and Materials : collect your materials for photography at school or at home.

   
   

5. At school:

   Try to make full use of the equipments provided for you:

   • DSLR camera

   • Lighting

   • White Box

   • Fabric

Neutral colours are black, white and grey.

_{Black creates shades to a hue.}

_{White creates tints to a hue.}

_{Grey creates tones to a hue.}

or

^{A tint is a hue with white added.}

^{A tone is a hue with grey added.}

^{A shade is a hue with black added}
