Student's love Britto's colourful works. He is a great inspiration for any stained glass window themed project.

THE PLAN
5 sessions; 50 minutes per session
1. SWBAT create artworks, integrating themes found through direct observation, personal experience, and imagination
2. SWBAT analyze and use a variety of image development techniques (e.g. distortion, metamorphosis, fragmentation)
3. SWBAT draw upon other arts disciplines as a resource in the creation of their own art works
1. Introduce stained glass windows.
- Look for similarities and differences. Talk about common characteristics.
- Ask "where do you see stained glass windows"?
2. Introduce Britto.
- Talk about similarities to stained glass windows.
3. Go over how to break up background space.
4. Develop motifs, this can be done in small groups for peer to peer support.
5. Sketchbook practice time.
6. Talk about colour schemes (we do triadic or analogous)
7. Paint with tempera pucks.
8. Outline - sharpie or challenge advanced students with a painted outline.
9. Dry.
10. Oil - you don't need very much oil. Paint on the front, spread paint as thin as possible.
11. Dry 3 days (you may want to put parper towel on top to help absorb the liquid)
Students are assessed on their image development (using their sketchbooks), the use of line to break up their image, and the use of a colour scheme.
These faux stained glass windows look amazing displayed on a window. The oil makes the paper translucent and lets the light shine through!

Can you tell us a bit more about what you do with the oil. Is it baby oil? How and where is it applied?
Thanks!

Hi, sorry for the confusion.
The procedure is mostly to walk you through the PowerPoint and the oil I use has been regular veg. or canola oil. I haven't used baby oil yet, but it might work too.
You paint the oil right on the front of the picture, that's why it has to be tempera pucks. Try to spread it out as well as you can.
