These 6th graders are working on their secret city drawings. They "build" their drawings using the vocabulary of foreshortening, shadows, contour lines, surface, overlapping, density and size.
This is an on-line art gallery sharing what's happening in the Denver, IA, 6-12th grade art room. Browse through our posts to see what the students are creating. Artistic efforts rely on curiosity, observation, attention, memory, imagination, sensitivity and intelligence, all skills that will enhance the students lives now and into the future. With our ever changing visual world, students need to become more knowledgeable in their abilities to plan, organize, interpret, and create visually. These are effective learning practices available through art education.
