Lesson Plans
 |
LP 1 How to Represent Distance
Students look at art reproductions of landscapes and discuss what the artists did to convey a sense of distance using color, shading, relative size, and perspective. Then they are guided through placing the main elements of their own landscape. They will begin by coloring the sky and the ground. |
 |
LP 2 Adding Detail & Texture to a Landscape
The artist discusses details students might want to add to their landscapes, shows how to do a leaf rubbing as an element to add as layers. Students then finish their landscapes. Finally, they participate in a Gallery Walk to see and discuss the work. |
