I have started Contour line drawing with my 5th grade. I LOVE contour line. I am excited about the lesson this year because they have already been exposed to contour in a lesson I taught last year where they did their hands (standard contour warm up) and then their shoes. 5th grade does plants - this year they are using Sharpies and Marvey Le Pens. It should make a nice variation with the thick and thin lines. Here is a test drawing I did to see how much the LePen would run with water over it. The student's contour plant drawings are finished with watercolor. I also got a shot of one of my student's warm ups - I love how she combined the two pens and also included her bracelets.
I remember doing contour drawings with my students. I loved how they drew their shoes. Great pictures.
ReplyDeleteWell done with the contour line drawing! I've never learn how to draw so all these read like new technique to me. Can tell you're a dedicated teacher and art lover. Thank you for sharing! ;)
