Artists as Resources
Introduce artists to your students as:
An anticipatory set to build excitement about the upcoming lesson.
A preview of an artist before beginning a more extended exploration.
An introduction to the processes, techniques, and artists’ motivations before working in similar media or beginning investigations into personal motivations.
