인물 관찰을 통한 수묵채색화 수업사례 연구

Abstract

Students are generally afraid of painting, finding it technically challenging particularly when they are not familiar with the medium. This is due largely to the technique-oriented curriculum, where the central goal is to faithfully represent reality. Textbook sections on Sumuk-color painting tend to focus on techniques of brushstroke, emphasizing ‘how’ to paint more than ‘what’ to paint. There is a need for a course that guides students to internalize their subjects, to project their own views on their work, and to let them understand painting as a means for learning about themselves and the world and to communicate with others. This paper presents a case study of a Sumuk-color painting course taught for prospective teachers. It began by observing friends in classroom and expressing their appearance as well as inner minds. A number of pedagogical results are reported. First, students observed their subjects' appearance and tried to portray their inner minds. Second, rather than focusing on technical results, students reflected on the significance of the process of observing and painting. Third, students tried not only to faithfully represent their subjects but also to reflect their own perspectives and feelings. Lastly, through mutual observation and painting, students explored art education as an opportunity for understanding and communicating.
