This is one of the first projects we completed for our first semester. Students learned about different types of line and shape through creating their own unique designs and patterns in the shape of their hand!

This project was a fun experiment with value. Students were challenged to use their skills in value to create a fun abstract piece of art using gradient value scales from light to dark!

This project was a great way for students to put their values skills into practice. Students picked a famous person or celebrity and re-drew the other half of their faces. These were a great success, and students got some great practice in portraiture!Â
