The 7th grade artists completed all their contour line shoe drawings this week. They used accentuated contour lines to show form and a 3-dimensional illusion.
Each student selected an interesting shoe or sneaker to draw. They included the Elements of Art such as texture,shape,color and expressive line quality in their drawings.
Examples of student drawings can be viewed in the small showcase and in the art room at Lakeview. Also, color examples can be viewed on this blog and will soon be posted to the Lakeview web gallery site for viewing and enjoyment.
This week we have also begun a unit on value and shading techniques of organic forms such as fruit. This week we have worked on worksheets dealing with a review of geometric solids and shading in colored pencil.
