Monochromatic/Complimentary Self-Portraits Sixth Grade

one point perspective name drawings

In 7th grade we recently finished one point perspective drawings of our names. After studying perspective and space, students set about drawing their names so that they looked as if they went backward into space. Check them out below:

Op Art

 

 

 

 Eighth graders recently finished a short unit on Op art, which we used to study line, shape, and most importantly value. They used value to create the illusion of three dimensionality in a flat drawing. By shading in the edges of each individual shape on their drawing the students create the appearance that the columns in their drawings are round and have bright highlights going down the middle. Great work eighth graders!
