Art 1 Value Drawings

As the sculptures are fired, students are working on their next project, a value drawing.  For the assignment, students decided on their spirit animal and are drawing an illustrative portrait of themselves as the animal.  The portraits are done with pencil as an organic study in value drawing.  Students have planned the portraits in an old fashioned style, with accessories to show their personality.  The lesson is a good way to revisit value in a different light from our perspective lesson.

Here are a few images of in progress work:
