> Examples of artefacts or methods used by other cultures that support your understanding of each element.
> Artist research for each element.
- Written research in your own words
- Visual research (copy,print,drawing,post card)
- Title, date, size, material
> Experimentation / response of your own influenced by the artist.
> Experimentation with different materials exploring each element (paint/printing/rubbings/ink/pastels/chalk...).
> Your own photographs that explore each element using cultural sources as the subject.
> Analysis of your own work that is critical not just descriptive.
> Remember presentation needs to be creative and interesting.
