8-15-08 Congrats art students you have done a great job this week learning
to see how to draw. This week you were introduced to the art vocabulary of
the elements and art as you created your logo name designs. Each one was
quite original! Your looks of doubt are turning to excitement as you are
beginning to draw. Although this past week we were copying lines, shapes,
and spaces, next week we will begin blind and modified contour drawings that
will be true originals.
I have added the MEGA Art Winners '08 to My Art GAllery. I hope to add more
pics as the year progresses.
