Aboriginal art originated among indigenous Australians and is used to tell Dreamtime stories through symbols and dots. It commonly features symbols of the land, plants, and animals and uses earth tones like black, red, white, and yellow made from natural materials like ochre. Aboriginal artists traditionally painted with their fingers or sticks and created dot paintings and rock art to communicate important stories and histories.
This PPT was created to discuss artists that use dots prominently in their work with elementary education majors and art pre-service teachers, to coordinate with reading Peter Reynolds children's book, The Dot. International Dot Day is on (or about) September 15.
Aboriginal art originated around 40,000-50,000 years ago when Aboriginal people first settled in Australia. They told stories through paintings using natural pigments, often on bark canvases. Common symbols in Aboriginal art represent animals, plants, people and Dreamtime stories. Dot painting involves applying colored dots in patterns using fingers, sticks or brushes. The dots make designs that reflect Aboriginal culture, rituals, and connection to the land. Aboriginal art is deeply meaningful and an important part of Australia's cultural heritage.
1) Aboriginal people are the indigenous people of Australia who tell stories called Dreamings about how the world began using symbols in art.
2) Aboriginal art comes from Australia and uses natural earth colors like black, yellow, red, and white as well as dots to represent natural elements and was created using fingers or sticks without brushes from materials found in the desert environment.
3) Traditional aboriginal music uses rhythmic singing accompanied by percussive instruments like clapsticks or body slapping as well as the didgeridoo.

This document provides a brief overview of several modern art movements from Impressionism to Pop Art. It explains that Impressionism began as a reaction to traditional academic painting and focused on capturing the effects of light. It then discusses Expressionism/Fauvism, noting its use of strong colors to convey emotion over realism. Later movements discussed include Art Nouveau, Cubism, Surrealism, Abstract Art, Op Art, and Pop Art.
A still life is a drawing or painting of objects arranged in a composition. Traditionally, the objects depicted had symbolic meanings representing concepts like life, death, beauty, and decay. Still life paintings use techniques like shading, value scales, and layering of foreground, mid-ground and background elements to create a sense of depth, volume and mass. In the 1800s, artists like Manet and Cezanne enhanced the mood and symbolism of still life works through loose brushwork, textures and manipulated light. Their impressionistic styles influenced later artists to portray the world in a more creative, gestural manner.
Wassily Kandinsky was a Russian artist born in 1866 who helped establish abstract art. He grew up enjoying music and initially pursued a career in law before becoming an artist at age 30. Kandinsky felt that abstract shapes and colors alone could constitute art, and that different colors represented different instruments and emotions. For example, he associated yellow with the trumpet and thought color combinations could be harmonious like musical chords. He often used circles, triangles, and squares in his paintings to represent spiritual, aggressive, and calm feelings respectively. Kandinsky helped pioneer abstract expressionism through his experimentation with form and color divorced from objective reality.

Artists create self-portraits for several reasons: [1] Traditionally, artists create self-portraits over the course of their careers to represent their physical attributes. [2] Self-portraiture can also announce an artist's place in society or style. [3] Frida Kahlo produced many self-portraits because she was often alone and herself was the subject she knew best.
Pointillism is a technique where small dots or strokes of pure color are applied in patterns to create an image. When viewed from a distance, the dots blend together optically in the eye. The technique was developed in the 19th century by artists like Georges Seurat who used it to render color mixtures and tones. Pointillism relies on the eye and mind of the viewer to blend the color spots.
Alma Thomas was an African-American painter born in 1891 and died in 1978 who was known for her colorful abstract paintings featuring energetic brushstrokes.

Pablo Picasso was an influential abstract artist known for developing Cubism in the early 1900s. Cubism rejected realistic depictions and relied on geometric shapes and lines to show objects from multiple views simultaneously, breaking them into abstract fragments like a broken mirror. Some key characteristics of Cubism included abstracted, rearranged, and simplified geometric forms showing more than one view of a subject.
Surrealism began in the 1920s as an artistic movement that aimed to represent unconscious thoughts and dreams through techniques like automatic drawing and frottage. The movement was inspired by Freudian psychoanalysis and sought to challenge rational thought. Early artists like Max Ernst and Joan Miro used automatic techniques to illustrate the subconscious, while later artists like Salvador Dali, Rene Magritte, and Yves Tanguy created meticulously realistic images of hallucinatory scenes. Feminist critics argue that Surrealism adopted male attitudes towards women and portrayed them in stereotypical ways.

Lev Vygotsky was a 20th century psychologist who developed an influential theory of language acquisition. He believed that language develops through social interactions and is interdependent with thought. According to Vygotsky, children acquire language skills by engaging in social experiences where more experienced members teach language. He also asserted that a child's intellectual development is crucial for language development and that inner speech develops from interactions with the environment.

Lev Vygotsky was a Russian psychologist who developed the sociocultural theory of cognitive development, which emphasizes how social interaction and culture impact cognitive development. He believed that community plays a central role in the process of "making meaning." A key concept is the Zone of Proximal Development, which is a child's potential development when aided by a more knowledgeable other such as a teacher or peer. Vygotsky argued that optimal learning occurs in the Zone of Proximal Development through guided collaboration with others.
1. The document describes various qualitative tests that can be used to identify different types of carbohydrates, including monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides.
2. Key tests described include the Molisch test, Benedict's test, Barfoed's test, Seliwanoff's test, and the hydrolysis test for sucrose. Each test exploits a unique chemical property of carbohydrates to indicate their presence.
3. The tests allow identification of carbohydrates by the color change produced, crystalline structure of osazones formed, or ability to reduce copper or show color change with reagents like iodine. Taken together, the battery of tests can determine the identity of an unknown carbohydrate sample.
