Famous Artist Study- Alexander Calder
With a degree in mechanical engineering and a passion for the arts, Alexander Calder experimented with Kinetic art through the creation of two different types of sculpture: the mobile and the stabile. Composed of delicately balanced components that respond to air currents, Calder’s mobiles are graceful and poised. In contrast, stabiles are non-moving sculptures. This lesson is inspired by the mobile art of Alexander Calder and the theory of kinetic energy, with a focus on the principles of balance and movement.

Georges Seurat is chiefly remembered as the pioneer of the Neo-Impressionist technique known as Pointillism, an approach associated with a softly flickering surface of small dots or color. We will learn this technique and use it to create our own pointillism painting. Artists will learn color theory and composition while creating their painting
