Wow! Time sure flies! Middle of October already! Thanksgiving Break will be here before we know it.
Right now.. my sophomores in Elements of Art are being introduced to Roy G. Biv.
Who is that? The color spectrum: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet. Learning the color wheel is a right of passage in art class.
My Drawing I students are learning about the Element of Art: Texture. They are creating an animal drawing, choosing an endangered animal to render first in pencil and then using Crow Quill Pens and India Ink. They will be creating visual texture using lines, shapes, hatching and cross-hatching. I had them choose endangered animals instead of a favorite kind to expose them to just a little bit of environmental issues. They will also be creating a Microsoft Publisher brochure about their endangered animal. Look for the completed drawings and brochures during Open House next month.
