Letting the Mind Soar

I was painting and
drawing and there
was this amazing
phenomenon going
on. My style just
seemed to take hold.

 In February 1964, The Beatles made their

first appearance on American television.

 Young Americans
were caught up in
Beatle-Mania.
Guys started to
grow their hair
longer, and girls
began wearing
their skirts short.

In a
reflection
of this
new
young
American
culture;
an artist
named
Peter
Max came
to create
colorful
images

That
mirrored
this fad.
The bright
colors and
patterns of
flowers,
birds and
stars
captured
the interest
that Max
had in
Astronomy.

Peter Maxs
childhood was
filled with travel
and adventure.
He was born in
Germany in
1937; and while
still a baby, his
family boarded
an ocean liner
and moved to

Shanghai, China. In
Shanghai, Peters
father ran a
successful
department store,
while his mom
designed clothing.
The family lived in a
neighborhood filled
with many different
cultures, and their
home was a pagoda.

Petes mothers would

leave art supplies out
for him to use, and
thus he came to love
art. He became
fascinated with comic
books, especially
American comics,
and he started to
copy their drawing
styles.

Throughout his
childhood, Peters
family traveled to
many different parts
of the worldTibet,
Israel, South Africa,
India, Italy, France
and then finally New
York City.

While living in Israel, Peter

studied art and attended
astronomy classes.

In New York, Peter joined the Art Students League

in Manhattan and studied realism art. After opening
his first studio, his graphic design talents were
discovered. He won numerous awards for record
albums and book jackets.

His realism evolved

into a highly original graphic style.

The 1960s were a time

of social and political
upheaval.

Young people,
who were against
conventional society
became known as
hippies
or
flower
children.

Peter Maxs became so popular

that he was in constant demand.
72 companies manufactured
products with his
designs and sold
hundreds of millions
of dollars worth
of merchandise.
From
G.E. clocks to
Burlington
socks

Max became a
pop-culture icon.

Can you think of

anything now that is
a pop-culture icon?

In 1970, Max decided to withdraw from the

public eye, and went into seclusion to do
what he loved most, paint.

He developed a
more painterly
style, noted for
quickly applied
expressionistic
brush strokes.
Today, Peter Max
has a studio in
New York,

He has painted for 6 U.S. Presidents;

his art is on display in Presidential libraries
and U.S. Embassies.

 Max has painted

an image of the
Statue of
Liberty every
year since 1976.
A collage of his
Liberties was
featured on the
cover of the
Verizon phone
book.

 His art has graced the body

 The inspiration for

this project comes
from the artwork Max
created for the Beatles
albums.

At the bottom of page 46, create a different

pattern in each empty box. These patterns
will be used on your project.

Learning Targets:
1-Identify and create the illusion of space.
2-Identify the arrangement of colors on a color wheel
and color schemes/harmonies.

Proportion scale for the

smallest manikin (background),
is on page 45 in your
art folder.
Pose the classroom manikin to your
desire, and in the 6 spaces
provided below, accurately draw to
proportion that chosen pose. Your
drawings head must touch the top
line, and the feet must touch the
bottom line. If it helps, create a
gesture-style drawing first, then
refine your drawing by erasing and
cleaning up lines. This drawing will
be traced onto the final paper. It will
be used the in background of your
final composition.
For a 4: Instead of drawing a posed
manikin, draw an actual person
either from direct observation or
from a photo.

Trace the foreground

manikin onto a new,
fresh sheet of
drawing paper.
YES, you must show the
whole figure, from
head to toe!

Using overlapping as a
method of showing
SPACE, next trace the
middle ground.
YES,
you must OVERLAP!

Thirdly, still using

overlapping as a
method of showing
SPACE, trace the figure
from page 45 in your art
folder into the
background. Erase any
line that is not
necessary for the
overlapping to be
visually correct.
YES,
you must OVERLAP!

Remember those
patterns from page 46
in your art folder?
Use those patterns to
fill in all the spaces of
the manikin bodies.
See examples on the wall.

Keep in mind, a large

variety of patterns is
the criteria
expectation.
