Just took the exam this morning

by Marcy Madden

Mar 14, 2009

Hi All, I would like to publicly thank you all for your fabulous postings! I just took the exam this morning in New Jersey, and most of the example questions from this site were there! I am cautiously optimistic that I passed, and that is due to the many postings here. I made my own study guide from here since I wasn't sure if all answers were correct, but the questions were...found a few more that were on the test that I would like to share with those who take it next month. Who is Margaret White? What was The Last Supper painted for? Which paint is toxic...listed cadmium red, a blue, a yellow etc. What is a planogragh? Famous photographer of either Yosemite or Yellowstone (don't remember which...but picked Ansel Adams) Also listed other materials that might be toxic...glue, acrylics, another choice and rubber cement. Good luck to all...and thanks again

Starr I took it, too and feel good about it. As for the questions, the cadmiums are toxic. A planograph is a print made from a flat surface instead of raised, like a lithograph. I picked Adams on the photographer,too. I am reasonably certain that the toxic material was rubber cement, but I thought they had started making it nontoxic now. On 3/14/09, Marc...See More

Sounds like we all had the same test. Mine said "Test C" I'm in the Norfolk, VA area.

I had: Taj Mahal How'd women painters learn - I hope it's family :) Spiral Jetty - who and why Romare Bearden collage Marsden Hartley Still Life, with 3 questions Baptistery doors Umberto Boccioni - Bronze man sculpture - what style Pousson's Shepards of Arcadia - Robert Adams interior - I can't remember the ? Durer's tall grass vs. Hasagwa Tanahu's pine trees - not sure I got these questions right. I can't even remember what the ?'s were, but I remember debating it for a bit :( William Blake ? On Painting Basic ceramics ?'s (FIrst step in throwing, what NOT to do to Bisque, slip, glaze) Few printingmaking ?'s I thought the weaving question was worded weird - What interlocks with the warp? Or something like that Cordoba Palace Hoppers use of light - I STILL don't know if this is suppose to be Vermeer or Caravaggio. I wish they'd shown a pic. I don't even remember who I put, I k now I changed my answer several times. Basic color theory questions - complementary pairs, local color, etc. Film that forms ? - I hope the answer is Bloom. I thought that was one of those questions that was totally unnecessary. Renaissance - Humanism Portraits of Royals? I hope it was Gainsborough collage related to what ism Elements & Principles of Design and how they relate Serpent Mound James Van der Zee Basic photography questions on depth of field, daquerreotype, etc What do you NOT use on metal - I hope it's saw QUote from sculpture artist...was either Rodin or Henry Moore. I felt it related to Moore's work the most so that's what I put, but could have been Rodin. Pencil Hardness Greek vase question 2 ?'s on Sleeping Gypsy Who was NOT a social commentary artist Baroque has new patrons - middle class Art terms like - stipple, shade, tympanum, contour, Monotype, crackling, gesso, collagraph, goache, Trompe de Loiel, Appropriation, slip, glaze, cement, frottage, size, encaustic, impasto, sfumato, chiaroscuro, etc. Last Supper is where? Reason for Stainedglass Titian's Urbino David's Death of Morat Eiffel Tower - prelude to skyscrapers Improper mating of work Which substance is most toxic - listed several types of paints. One Titanium White, other cadmium red. I hope it's cadmium. Maragaret Bourke -WHite - What paper would pastel adhere to best Digital resolution ? Color Field artist - Frankenthaler Text artist - Jenny Holzer "LEss is More" - Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe Calder Nocturne in Black and Gold - Art for it's beauty The Scream - pre Expressionist (I hope this is right) Something about Byzantine mosics First Baroque palace Armory Show Fat over Lean

That's about all I can remember. I won't know for several weeks if I passed, but I know I would not have even come CLOSE if it hadn't been for this site. It definitely put me on to what to study and refresh myself on. I graduated in 1988 with a BS in art education and havn't taught full time since 1990, so this was not exactly fresh in my mind. Subbing in 5 states (navywife) and motherhood do not keep you up to date. :) Fingers crossed for a passing score.... Thanks again, Tamara
