  1. BELL WORK COLOR TIME 10 MINUTES REMEMBER THEY ARE DUE TOMORROW!

  2. Romero Britto • Born in Brazil in 1963 • Poor family (8th of 9 children) he began painting on scraps of cardboard and newspaper.

  3. Determined to succeed in his art, Britto left his native Brazil for Europe and then went on to America, exhibiting and selling his art along the way. • In 1989, Britto was chosen as an artist in Absolut Vodka's high-profile ad campaign.

  4. Thus catapulted into the limelight, Britto went on to be commissioned by Pepsi, Grand Marnier, Disney, IBM, Apple Computers, and a United Nations postage stamp series, and became the official artist for the Latin Grammy Awards.

  5. He donates much of his time and work to charitable causes, such as Amnesty International, the Red Cross, the American Cancer Society, AIDS research, and the maintenance of the Brazilian rainforest. • He designed the cover for Michael Jackson's CD benefiting the victims of the World Trade Center, "What More Can I Give," and his image "The Gift of Life", promoting the importance of organ donation, appeared on 4000 buses around the world.

  6. , but in general, go for lots of color! The trickiest part of this project is to keep your design "readable" .... try not to get so carried away with your patterns and colors that it becomes too "busy"!   • Materials: • 9x12 white construction paper • pencil & eraser • black chisel tip marker • assorted colorful markers (we use Crayola) • Directions: • Sketch a simple design, cropping elements off the edges and focusing on a balanced composition.  Large shapes work best so avoid creating small spaces where your lines intersect.   • Use your black chisel tip marker to trace bold outlines, dividing your design into interesting shapes.   • Then, fill in these shapes with bold colors and patterns.  It's okay to leave some areas white if that's part of your overall design, but in general, go for lots of color! • The trickiest part of this project is to keep your design "readable" .... try not to get so carried away with your patterns and colors that it becomes too "busy"!   What techniques do you notice that Romero Britto use in most of his works?

  7. Qualities of Britto’s Art • Colorful patterns • Vibrant colors • Bold black lines • Hard edges • Playful themes

  11. “Art is too important not to share.”

  12. Neo-Pop Cubism His style often combines the artistic techniques of Pop Art with the intricate compositional qualities of Cubism (Picasso).
