When the opportunity arose to implement an Exploratory Unit at Washington, I just had to volunteer! We do not have art as an elective... It made sense to me to allow students who have an aptitude for art or simply just an interest in it... the chance to engage in an art project. Although I allowed for some students to explore different art related concepts on their own, the majority in my four week class chose to participate in creating a one point perspective drawing.
One point perspective is the simplest method of perspective drawing which uses a single vanishing point. I showed my students a tutorial online and multiple different drawings. Most of the students took the initial lesson & ran with it! There were many different ideas that were generated! Very proud! After the art work was complete, my students created free verse poems to give insight about their drawing! Take a look at these masterpieces below!
These are just a few of the talented projects that are on display in the front lobby at Washington! You should take a peak! They are even more amazing in person!! :)
More art is on its way!
Until Next Time,
