Woman and Fantasy Tree!

Fantasy is a great way to stimulate young minds! This project centered portrait of a dramatic looking woman with a fantasy tree and background.

First we drew the woman's face, then the middle ground, then the background. Then we colored in the drawing with Prismacolor markers.

Some students chose to make the drawing into a self portrait.

 Others chose to create an underwater scene.
 Movement is created by
the use of lines. We worked out how the viewer’s eye should travel
through the artwork.
 Rythem is created by
repeating shapes and colors.

 Abstraction is a difficult concept to grasp, and some of our little artists jumped in and tried it!
