Suggestions-
1.Review calligraphy (some great sites abound). Have the students do a) =
a lyric of their favorite song or poem written in calligraphic style; b) =
an initial of their name and a picture to compliment it ie: Lucy- L-Leg =
, Cathy -C-Candies etc.
2. Have a color theory or two and have them paint a comic character real =
or imagined using cool colors or analogous colors or monochromatic, etc. =
The last step of movement lines and details made with different size =
sharpies really pulls it together.
3. Have them bring in a photo from a favorite vacation spot of a =
landscape out of a magazine and copy it with water colors.
4. Have them make a cubist still life drawing after studying Braque and =
Picasso and then translate it on the computer. Borrow a guitar from the =
band room and include some odd stuff- newspapers, oranges, teapots wine =
bottles, plastic grapes, etc.
5. Self portraits are always amazing popular. I guess 'cause they are so =
self absorbed.
6. draw several different scenes then cut and past a collage. Or draw a =
focus and paste it to a painted background.
and so on and so forth.........Lisa in VA
