Our last week of Franklin

I apologize for my delay in posting this weeks lesson material.  This week flew by.  I can't believe it is already Thursday!  

This week we will add two fundamental building blocks of art.

1.  The art element texture.

• Here is a couple of simple videos  for learning about texture. 

• Here is an Art Lesson with Sharon Jeffus on Texture and Value.  Link

2.  The art principle Unity.

• Here is a couple of short videos demonstrating Unity. 

Mission # 6

Your 5th mission, should you choose to accept it, is to practice drawings for the draw string backpack we will complete next week.   

You may draw whatever you like, but again this week we will be practicing a different type of drawing that will help you overall in your drawing skills.   Enjoy the process.  Remember practice makes better.  Don't forget to bring your practice drawings to show the class and add to your portfolio.

This week we will be be practicing drawing trees .

1. Drawing Trees I

2. Drawing Trees II

3. Pop Art Landscape

Can't get enough?  Here is some drawings to try just for fun:
