Drawing and Painting

Random Acts of Art.
In this exciting and fun first excercise students responded to a series of prompts to stir their creative juices. Each artist was able to create a bold work of art while learning how to apply paint, integrat drawings, and mixed media in a variety of ways. They created layers using a grid and limited palette to build compositional sophistication and emphasis of one focal point. They learned to guide the viewers eye with line, texture and color and explore media. Students increased observational drawing skills while realizing drawing skills alone do not make a successful painting.
