Weekly Update 10/28/13 - 11/01/13

Sixth Grade

We spent the week looking at lines and texture this week. We talked about types of lines and how to use contour lines to create simple but detailed drawings. Then we created visual texture rubbings and on Thursday we created actual texture using paper. We had a quiz on Friday testing our new knowledge.


Seventh Grade

We talked about what abstract art is about, and then looked at the elements line, shape, and value. Students created abstract drawings on black paper which displayed their understanding of these three elements.



Eighth Grade

Just like seventh grade, we looked at line, shape, and value. But in 8th grade we talked about op art and how to create optical illusions using value. The goal was to create a drawing that showed the illusion of 3-dimensionality. These were finished on Friday.
