Contemporary Philippine Arts from the Regions Artistic Skills and Techniques ABDUL RACMAN A. MANARDAS Subject Teacher How many times have you looked at a work of art and wondered "how did they do that"? The reality is that artists rely on a support network that includes family, friends, peers, industries, business interests and the whole society they live in. For example, an artist may need only a piece of paper and pencil to create an extraordinary drawing, but depends on how artistic and using good techniques the artist is. Whole industries surround art making, and artists rely on many different materials in order to realize their work. Many artists learn their craft on their own through practice, study, and experimentation. What is required to become an artist? At the end of this lesson, the student should be able to: 1. Apply artistic skills and techniques in the process of creation (CAR11/12AP-0f-h-15) Skill and technique are one of the hallmarks that we often value in a work of art. Becoming skilled means a continual repetition of a craft or procedure until it becomes second nature. And technique is the manner how the materials are used of having a remarkable work of art. Many contemporary artists do not have formal studies in the fine arts. Many of them are self-taught. Concerned with the development of their talent and skills in artmaking, they study on their own, interact with artists and read a lot about lives of artists and their artworks. They also explore the materials in hardware stores, experiment with chemical reactions on their base material. Some hire resin makers, house painters and materials fabricators to help them in constructing artworks. In this lesson, we will learn the meaning of “artistic skill” and “technique” through actual and hands-on activities. We will also learn that artists’ choice of material and how they use these materials are at the heart of making art, and that these involves process and transformation. ACTIVITY 1: OBSERVE Observe the photo. Write five (5) sentences on what you have observed. At the end of this lesson, the student should be able to: 1. Discuss what are artistic skill and technique. 2. Determine art techniques used by artists. 3. Applies artistic skills and techniques in the process of creation.(CAR11/12AP-0f-h-15) ARTISTIC SKILLS AND TECHNIQUES With the broadening of the art world, many people are getting confused about what qualifies as an artistic skill. Artistic skills are abilities that are possessed by artists who operate within a fine art capacity. Each artist uses different mediums to develop their artistic skills example the sculptor uses metal, wood, stone and glass in sculpting same also the architect uses wood, bamboo, bricks stone etc. in architecture and many more. A medium is defined as the material, or the substance out of which a work is made. Technique is the way artists use and manipulate materials to achieve the desired formal effect, and communicate the desired concept, or meaning, according to his or her personal style (modern, Neoclassic, etc.). The distinctive character or nature of the medium determines the technique. Here are some of art techniques used by artists. 1. Collage – is the technique of an art production used in the visual arts where the artwork is made from on assemblage of different forms, thus creating a new whole. Collage may sometimes include magazines and newspaper clippings, ribbons, paints, bits of colored or handmade papers, portions of other artwork or texts, photographs, and other found objects, glued to a piece of paper or canvas. Collage PICTURE 1 COLLAGE OR DECOLLAGE? PICTURE 1 PICTURE 1 GRAFFITI COLLAGE PICTURE 2 PAINT MAKING OR GRAFFITI? Collage 2. Decollage – is the opposite of collage; instead of an image is being built up all or parts of existing images, it is created by cutting, treating away or otherwise removing pieces of an original image. The French word “Decollage” in English means “Take- off” or “To become Unglued” or “To become unstuck”. Example of decollage include cut-up technique. Similar technique is the lacerated poster, a poster in which one has been over another. Decollage 3. Graffiti – are writing or drawings that have been scribed, scratched, or painted illicitly on a wall or other surface, often in a public space. Graffiti range from simple written words to elaborate wall paintings. Graffiti may express underlying social and political messages, and a whole genre of artistic expression is based spray paint graffiti styles. Graffiti 4. Land Art – earth works, or earth arts is an art movement in which landscape and the work of art are inextricably linked. It is also an art form that is created in nature, using natural materials such as soil, rock (bed rock, boulders, stones), organic media (logs, branches, leaves), and water which introduced materials such as concrete, metal asphalt, or mineral pigments. Land Art 5. Digital Arts – is an artistic work or practice that uses digital technology as an essential part of the creative or presentation process. Digital art is work made with digital technology or presented on digital technology. This includes images done completely on computer or hand-drawn images scanned into a computer and finished using a software program like Adobe Illustrator. Digital art can also involve animation and 3D virtual sculpture renderings as well as projects that combine several technologies. Some digital art involves manipulation of video images. After some resistance, the impact of digital technology has transformed activities such as paintings, drawing, sculpture, and music/sound art, while new form such as net art. Digital Art 6. Mixed Media – It refers to a work of visual art that combines various traditionally distinct visual art. For example, work on canvas that combines paint, ink and collage. When creating a painted or photograph work using mixed media, it is important to choose the layers carefully and allow enough dying time between the layers to ensure the final work will have structural integrity, if many different layers are imposed. Many effects can be achieved by using mixed media. Found objects can be used in conjunction with the traditional artist to attain a wide range of self- expression. Mixed Media Art Mixed Media Art 7. Print Making – is the process of making artworks by painting, normally in the paper. Prints are created by transforming ink from a matrix ink from a matrix or through a prepared screen to a sheet of paper or other material. Common types of matrices include metal plates, usually copper or zinc, or polymer plates for engraving or etching; stone aluminum of polymer for lithography; blocks of wood crafts and wood graving; and linoleum for linocuts. Screen made of silk or synthetic fabrics are used for the screen-printing process. Printmaking Art 8. Frottage – is the technique of rubbing with crayon on a piece of paper which has been placed over an object or an image. The impression of the image can be created using leaves, woods, wire screen, or metal with embossed image or words. Frottage Art 9. Decalcomania – is the process of applying gouache to paper or glass then transferring a reversal of the image onto canvas or other flat materials. Decalcomania Art 10. Decoupage – is done by adhering cut-outs of paper and then coating these with one or transparent coating of varnish. Decoupage Art 11. Eggshell mosaic - is an artistic technique that uses tiny parts of eggshell to create a whole image or object. Mosaics are usually assembled using small tiles that are square, but they can also be round or randomly shaped. Eggshell Mosaic Eggshell Mosaic 12. Trapunto painting – is the technique used by Pacita Abad where her canvases are padded, sewn, and often filled with sequins, beads, shell, buttons, tiny mirrors, bits of glass, rickrack, swatches of precious textiles and other things that she picks up from her travels and journey.

Materials you need: 1 Oslo paper Eggshells (cleaned and dried) Glue Watercolor/ acrylic paint/ dye/ other coloring materials Pencil Marker How to Make: Step 1. Decide on a theme or idea for your collage (example ideas: landscapes, flowers, event,etc.). Sketch it first on your Oslo paper using a pencil. Step 2. Using the marker, outline your sketch. Step 3.

If you are satisfied with the arrangement of the eggshells, carefully glue the pieces of eggshells together. Let it dry. Step 5. Add accent pieces using the coloring material.
