Essential Questions

How do artists develop content and ideas for their work?

They play around with different materials and see what they like. They come up with a basic concept and then work off of that. The finished work rarely looks like what the artist had in mind in the beginning.

What kinds of techniques, behaviors, and habits allow artists to turn their ideas into meaningful works of art that engage the viewer?

They brainstorm all their ideas and then figure which one makes the most sense to make. Then they can look up pictures of what they are making.
