Portfolio design (major grade) 

Steps:
  1. Draw your name large in block or bubble lettering 
  2. create various textures in each letter, this should be created in pen to eliminate smudging when applying color pencil.
  3. Using the circle template, draw 7 circles of different sizes.
  4. 2 circles need to be in warm and cool color pencil. This was a demonstration completed in class, this was also done on a technique sheet.
  5. the rest of the circles must have something breaking in or breaking out of them. This is where you get to use your imagination.
  6. Grab a long ruler, trace the ruler 5 times in different directions, lift your pencil to allow the traced ruler to go under the circles and lettering
  7. Withing the 5 lines you can choose to color fade any colors you choose as long as they are not complementary or color opposites.
Supplies needed:
  • hard paper size: 
  • ruler
  • pencil
  • sharpie
  • circle templates
  • color pencils
  • tape or a stapler
​Essential question: How are the elements and principles of design used in this project? How about color theory? 
 How will we know if they’ve learned it? 
Students will have a portfolio showcasing their knowledge of following directions, the elements and principles of design, color theory and texture.
What will we do if they don’t learn it?
Students will be re-taught and can utilized videos to re-work missing elements of their assignment. 
 What will we do if they have / have already learned?
Students can always go above and beyond the instructions to create a more challenging experience. 
My students understand and can… by the end of the lesson
Blend color pencils, understanding warms and cool colors, lettering, implied textures and composition.
