Teachers, save “Abstract Photography” to assign it to your class.

1. Move around the classroom to find your own 'abstract' to photograph. Think about patterns, shapes, zoom and color. 2. Use the photo tool to take a photo of your abstract. 3. Use Snapseed app filters and drawing tools to enhance the image. 4. Is abstract art even art? Record your voice or write a caption to share why you think abstract art is or isn't interesting and valuable. Tips: Simplicity: Distracting and useless elements that don’t trigger emotions and may confuse viewers should be eliminated. Composition: A clear structural design; order, placement, and balance between shapes, patterns, textures, and even colors. Angle of View: Looking for the best vantage point that will complement your subject and keep distractions out of the frame. Lighting: Emphasize, dramatize, or give prominence to subject forms, details, or areas within an image. Harmony: Create visual balance and proportion Mystery: Including an element of mystery and intrigue.
