Take notes on the stained glass video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGAumT8aNkk
Turn in notes, discuss what you learned in the video about stained glass, Gothic architecture and painting.
At your table, conduct an internet search for “European Gothic Cathedral” and choose a different from your
classmates’ groups. Look at images of the stained glass found on the cathedral you chose. What colors
were used? Tell the story of one of the images by reading the image, not any associated text.
Ideation for your own faux stained glass: write a list at your table of interesting scenes to create in the
stained glass. We will use tissue paper and black acrylic paint, among other media. Your scene must include
at least one whole person, head to toe, and at least one other object. You may copy the poses found in real
Gothic stained glass but you must take a photo of someone in that pose. You may also create your own
scenes or use family photos. See your teacher’s examples. You will be drawing from your photo.
Take photos of your scene. Photos are due first thing tomorrow. Bring wooden sketching pencils tomorrow.

You may paint the tissue paper for ombre effects and for any color we don’t have. Also, raid your tissue gift
wrap stash at home!
Friday
1. Learn how to apply tissue paper for your collage. You may look up “faux stained glass” on the internet for more
ideas. No pencil may be visible on tissue paper: be sure you cut it off. Overlap colors to blend and create
shading. The entire image must have at least one layer of tissue on it.
Next week: Paint your contours in ink or acrylic, add artistic vision. You must use paint, no markers or paint pens
allowed. Learn how to create texture and drapery in your contour lines. Refer to real stained glass examples to guide
you.
