Several years ago we did the cylinder ones with toilet paper tubes, metallic
polyester paper (I think it was called), and grids. It was a kick. I
probably have some old pictures lying around somewhere I can scan.
I also made a grid like Hans Holbien's skeletal head (can't remember the
spelling of HIS NAME either)...whoa...the memory's going. It's really easy
to do. Basically it a grid in perspective. I've never actually done the
project with kids but the premise looks promising and fairly easy. I haven't
wanted to do it without making a sample drawing myself first and I just
never finished it. I was working on a lion's face but got side-tracked along
the way. You know how that goes. The unfinished sample looked really neat
and worked great looking at it from a sharp angle. The perspective grid I
made fits on a 18x24" piece of paper. I really SHOULD complete this lesson
someday. Now I'm getting enthused again! Thanks for the nudge.
