​​​The goal of the project is for you to get to know more about Renaissance art. You will have two choices: hands-on or traditional academic.​


​Hands on Choice​

Your option here is to create a product reflecting the work of a Renaissance artist, sculptor or engineer. You may use any materials you feel are appropriate to create your work, but it must be relevant and you must use in-class time effectively. 

Some potential projects include: 

Create a painting in the style of a Renaissance artist of your choice or recreate a panel from the Sistine Chapel ceiling

Make a model dome based on the design of Brunelleschi's in Florence or Michelangelo's dome for St. Peter's Cathedral

Create a model of one of the Leonardo Da Vinci's designs or create an invention he might have come up with then sketch it out and explain it

Once you have decided on the project and the artists you will need to click on the "Hands on Choice" link above and fill out that form.  

What you need to have done/created by presentation time:
  • ​Hands on Choice Form
  • Biography on your artist, sculptor or engineer (click here ​for the biography requirements)
  • Powerpoint presentation (3-5 minutes in length) explaining the following information:
    • ​Background on the project you chose
    • Background information from your biography on your artist, sculptor, or engineer
