Drawing Celebrities

My eighth grade art students learned about the importance of using values while drawing. A successful drawing will give the illusion of a 3D image. The light source in a drawing was also discussed. They initially drew a portrait before learning about these tools. The final drawing was used to assess their learning. Art was then displayed above the main hall inside twenty frames. I am always amazed at the level of talent that my students display. It is always a joy to teach students that want to learn more about drawing and painting.
