This week students began a series of value exercises in various types of media.
These exercises are part of the unit on Still-Life drawing. We have started a value scale in pencil which will be added to the final still-life drawing.
Students are also learning about the life and work of the French artist named Paul Cezanne of the 19th - 20th century. Cezanne is considered the father of modern art and is very well-known for his unique realistic still-life compositions.
Students are busy practicing a variety of shading techniques with colored pencils,shading pencils and crayons in their exploration of value.
