Reflection Art
We had volunteers from Museum London teach us how to make these really cool reflective art pieces. To make them is fairly simple.

Line Art
Students were given a sheet divided into eight sections. Each of the sections contained a single line (a different line in each section). Students were asked to study the lines and try to create a complete picture out of it. The purpose of the assignment was to explore the use of line in our drawings, and to recognize different types of lines. To add the final touches to their artwork, students were asked to think about their use of space and colour. The results were stunning! |
