Are You Practicing? Here is a fun way to do it

Hi Art Students! Are you using the 6 components of drawing that we went over in class this week?  What are those again? (hint:SCALE  F)Think about that this week as you practice. In particular Lines and how they are used.

Bonus card for those who come to class having drawn a picture by following these instructions. Work each step in order:

1. Get out a piece of blank white paper and pencil
2. Start at one edge of the paper and make a straight line to another edge of the paper
3. Do this again starting at a different edge of the paper and but use a line that isn't straight
4. Now add 2 shapes of your choosing but not a circle
5. Now add any size circle but it has to have a line through it
6. Then, add another circle that isn't touching anything else
7. Add 3 small shapes all the same
8. Then add to a circle 2 thick lines that come out of it but don't touch anything else
9. Lastly, add a triangle on top of another shape
10. Now erase something
11. Now choose 3 colors(markers, crayons, color pencils-you choose) and color in some but not all the spaces, choose carefully and thoughtfully.
12. Sign and give it a title

If you are really brave do one in the sketching hold and one in the writing/drawing hold. Did it feel different? Which picture do you like better? Trust me none of us will do this in the same way and it will be fun to see what others have done don't you think? I will bring mine to class to share too.
