Art Summary Trailblazers and Explorers, 1/13/2015


We continued our creation of a magazine cover for the Saturday Evening Post. Last week we began by making 3 rough drafts and then during the week, they were supposed to make some drawings from real life. We did the final drafts for The "Saturday Evening Post" magazine covers, using colored pencils and crayons. They also experimented with a drawing exercise that required them to draw a person from life using contour lines and not looking at their paper. This exercise helps us to study the subject and concentrate on telling our hand what to draw. It is great for training the brain and hand to work together to draw better.
