Interior Linear Line Extension Drawing  Objective:  Students created two extended linear line drawings focusing on perspective and depth in their compositions.  Each student completed one drawing in charcoal (vine charcoal and charcoal pencil) and one in paint. They began by finding an interesting and complex area in the classroom.  They  built a foundation for the drawing with straight lines that built a framework for the final piece.  The final work incorporated the lines.  Some chose to complete a third drawing, the lines were optional in that drawing.  See Lesson Plan  Click image for larger view.
Alice Neel Figure Drawing Objective:  Students used figure drawings and their study of the artist Alice Neel to create a finished work using mixed media and text.  After researching the life and works of Alice Neel, students realized that there is a strong connection between the artist and its subject.  Students aimed to immolate this connection within their own finished figurative works.  Light discussion was encouraged so that the student and model could begin to understand each other.  Students used their knowledge on composition to create a strong design.  See Lesson Plan  Click image for larger view.
