Tuesday

Today, we finished up our drawing of Mr. Stravinsky. Students found the project difficult but helpful in improving their drawing skills. Usually we watch an art history video on Mondays. However, since our DVD player was not working yesterday, we pushed the video back to today. The video today is on the first great artist of Western Art, Giotto. After answering the video guide, we discussed the concept of positve and negative space in a design. Finally, we started planning our first large drawing (a line drawing of shoes). Students are expected to use their new knowledge of positive and negative space to create a good design for their shoe drawing.
