Grade 7 students have recently finished their second art unit entitled “Make Your Mark.” The unit question was “How can we communicate visually?” and our significant concept was “Line can be used to convey shape, texture and tone.” After exploring mark making & line drawing techniques to create texture and tone by Vincent Van Gogh, Albrecht Durer & Rembrandt, students then created their own drawings based on their Field Studies trip. The compositions included a background, middle-ground and foreground, which were then combined in relief. Combining the different grounds in relief was a new element started this year.
