Looking for artists to research?

Have you tried Pinterest?  It has now become my go to site for looking for artists and artwork, even more than Google.

If you are looking for artist ideas you could follow my "art" board or bookmark it for later.

You can also follow my "for students" board, that's where I pin things that remind me of ways that some students work.

Incoming 9th grade IB - Class of 2017!

Wow, we had a great turn out last night with some great presentations from the teachers.  I know its a lot of information so if any of our incoming students are reading this, don't freak out, your teachers will be there to help you through this program :)

If you have any questions about art or any of the other subjects, you can find the teacher's contact information on the Haines City IB website.

Here's the Art presentation from last night:

SLR Camera Simulator

Did you ever wonder what effect all those settings on the camera have on your final picture?  Getting a good exposure is a combination of ISO, shutter speed,  and aperture (f stop).  All these things work together to let just the right amount of light in to take a great picture.

Here's an online simulator so you can see what effect changing these numbers has on the picture.

Try these for fun:

Flame Painter - neat looking both with the black background and the white

Fluid Painter - looks like when you drop ink on the surface of water then drag a stick through it
