High [9th-12th] Lesson Plan

The Still Life

Created on March 30, 2012 by MrsKey

In art I, we begin our year with basic drawing skills. We focus on elements such as value, texture, positive/negative space and drawing what you see. I use a still life to challenge students to use what they have learned.Lines in the fabric will scare the students at first but will help them draw the fabric without looking flat.
