SS 2 VISUAL ARTS LESSON NOTE FOR WEEK 8
Construction Of Letters.
The construction of letters inmost cases are done in a square box. In line with this, a student will find that the round letters such O and Q are complete circles and are therefore based on a circle within the square box.
Letters C, G, and D are slightly narrower in width, but the round part of the letters are constructed in the in the same circular pattern as those other letters mentioned above. The widest of all the letters are M and W. These two letters are the only ones that are slightly wider than space in the circular box.
Next in line are letters such as the T, H, A, N, U and V. They are regarded as rectangular letters and usually do occupy three-quarters of the square box. Also included in this group are letters K, X and Y. In their own case however, they are usually produced a bit narrower than those mentioned above and so, they occupy about five eight of the size of the square box.
To Be Continued.
Please reproduce the following letters on a cardboard sheet for submission and marking on resumption. Use the normal size as we do in the studio.

SS 1 DYEING &BLEACHING LESSON NOTE FOR WEEK 9.

The Stitch Method of Tie-Dye.

In the Stitch Method of Tie-Dye, the students have many opportunities of creating very exciting and creative designs on fabric. In this method, the students are free to use either the hand stitch styles or where it is available, the machine stitch method.
Luckily for the African students, stitching by hand is something most of them are used to since they do that even at a young age when they need to repair torn clothes and stuff like that. The difference between what they used to do and that of the Tie Dye Method is simply the need to introduce a good level of creativity into the stitching activity and of course thereafter apply Dye Stuff to the stitched fabric. How beautiful the end product turns out is very dependent on the level of creativity put into the work by the students.

SS 1 VISUAL ARTS LESSON NOTE FOR WEEK 9
The Benin Art (2)
The Obas of Benin were seen as people who possessed special divine powers because they were generally believed to be re-incarnations (people who died and came back to life again through birth) of their ancestors.
The Art pieces or works that were produced for worship purposes were regarded as sacred because of their spiritual connections and powers. It was also a tradition that the heads of the past Obas were worshipped as deities.
It is very sad to note however that most of the very beautiful Ivory and Bronze artworks produced in Benin in those glorious days were either seriously looted (stolen) during the military campaigns carried out by the British soldiers against the natives or purchased at low prices with the support of some of the corrupt locals and are till date located either in private collections of some rich British citizens or illegally kept in public museums not only in Britain but across Europe generally.
One of the best known Ivory masks produced in Benin and used as symbol for the FESTAC (Festival of the African Arts and Culture) that was held in Lagos, Nigeria in the year 1977 for an example, is till date still being kept in the British Museum.
Luckily though, some of the artworks were somehow protected from the thieves and have been kept safe in Nigerian Museums in Lagos, Ife and Jos.

SS 1 VISUAL ARTS LESSON NOTE FOR WEEK 8
The Benin Art
The Benin Art consisted of various forms of art and were done in bronze, ivory, terracotta and wood. Of all of these however, the bronze works were far more popular generally.
The Folk Art of the Binis was always executed in wood which of course could not last very long while the Court Art which was mainly produced for the Oba’s Palace and Chiefs was almost always done in metal (brass / bronze or ivory media) and these were not only long lasting but also quite expensive in nature.
Benin’s relationship with the Ooni of Ife had developed into an exchange of diplomatic relations which resulted in an Ife emissary being sent in 1280 to instruct the Benin artists in the art of bronze-casting which the Ife artists were well known for. Gongs, Masks and Metal Jingles were produced during this period
In order to correct a gradual slow down in the quality and technical ability of the Court Art, one of the Obas of Benin, Oba Oguola went as far as organizing an Art School in 1400 A.D. with an Ife bronze-caster as a teacher.
It is therefore not surprising that the Arts of Ife and Benin were very similar to each other in nature. One common feature of both Arts was the way they usually treated the figure of a human being. This was usually done three main parts – the head, body and limbs (hands and legs). The head was always big since it is regarded as seat of wisdom and power.
Here below are some artworks produced in Benin in those days.
