Liteacy photo 2

For me this photo shows aspects of literacy specifically in visual art. There is a lot that went into making these boots, sewing, color combination, planning, technique, and a functional aspect. There is also a lot that could be talked about when viewing these boots. Students need background knowledge and practice in order to create art, and they need vocabulary and information in order to know how to analyze art when they are viewing it, instead of just saying I like it because it is cool. Some visual art aspects that could discussed include cool verses warm colors, materials, ideas, craftsmanship, technique, style, planning, function and much more. Sometimes we know that we like something like a painting, but are unsure of how to describe it or explain what it is about that painting we like and why we like it. Literacy in visual art is like literc in ery subject becase it allow students communicate verbaly and in witing as to why they think and/or feel a certain way. Literacy allows students to learn at a higher level of undersanding.
