First through third graders are concentrating on the element of line for their first project of the year. We looked at many artworks that contain lots of different types of lines and tried to name lines we saw in the art room. We are focusing on horizontal, vertical, diagonal, zig zag, wavy, broken, and spiral. We read the book Lines That Wiggle to give is some ideas!
Students were taught how to draw their initial large on the page, making sure they gave it a thick line quality. They divided their background into several different sections and used crayons to draw different lines in each section. Great work guys!
