During this session students learned how to plan out a drawing from a still life. We first started by setting up a still life of a bottle and some fruit. We then discussed how to begin to plan out our drawing. Students learned about proportion, shadows, highlights, negative space and value.
From there we re-drew them onto our canvas. Students then learned about proper brush strokes, how to mix paints and how to blend their colours. This was a very exciting process for many of them.
Each student worked very hard on their paintings and were extremely proud with the end results. I couldn't have been happier!
These are just a few of the remarkable paintings that were done! Remember, these students are between the ages of 7 and 11!
