This week the 7th grade art students have begun a unit on Sratchboard Drawing.
The first activity was an introduction to the concept of multiples and printmaking. An overview of the concept of etching, engraving, and the printmaking process was explored in art class this week.
Early this week students practiced creating four geometric solids with the scratchboard tool.
Students learned basic scribing strokes in preparation for their larger work of art. Currently, students are looking for inspiration sources in the theme of nature for their scratchboard work and are incorporating the three parts of the landscape in their compositions or layouts.
