The junior high students are learning to really look closely at what they are drawing. We focused on the figure and then created these graphic silhouettes.

We have had a great start to the school year. Everyone is excited to get going and make art. After going through all the rules and procedures of the art room we did some exercises to train our eyes to really see, like an artist sees. Pictured is our eighth grade class doing some blind contour drawings. Some interesting drawings came about from doing this. We will be concentrating on improving our drawing skills for the first part of this quarter.
