This week the 6th grade art students continued with their unit on perspective and architecture. Students finished the shading and rendering of their cube in One-Point Perspective. Each 6th grade artist used three different values and created a cast shadow. Shading techniques were practiced before completion of each perspective rendering.
The 6th grade artists also learned about the fascinating life and work of Renaissance artist Leonardo Da Vinci,in addition to the early life and career of visionary architect Frank Lloyd Wright of the modern period of Architecture.
In the area the area of community news:
Several Lakeview artists won top prize awards at the annual Downers Grove Junior Woman's Club this year. From the 7th grade Samantha Cho,Angie Martino,and Marwa Choudry won top honors and Jessica Stacko was selected for a top award from the 8th grade at Lakeview.
These Lakeview artists will have their 2D and 3D works of art professionally exhibited at the Downers Grove Public Library during May for all to enjoy.

Thank you again to all students who entered their work this year.
