Art 1: Perspective Drawing

1-Pt Perspective Name: We introduced perspective by creating our names in 1-pt perspective.

1-Pt Perspective Re-Designed Hallway: We took a couple days in the hallway to create 1-pt perspective drawings of the space. After we completed our hallway drawings we created another hallway drawing where we redesigned the hall into a hallway that students would like to walk through.

2-Pt Perspective Historical Building: We wrapped up our perspective drawing unit by creating a 2-pt perspective drawing of a historical building from the area.

4-Steps To Abstraction

   This project is our introduction into abstract art. The idea is simple you take an image and paint it in the first square. In the secound square you zoom in on an interesting section of the image and paint it. In the third square you zoom in more. By the fourth square the image is abstract. I had the students focus on the color and shape of the section they were zooming in on so that their final square would create an interesting abstract composition.
