The Art Lady

I posted this artworks on 10th December, 2019 and all Instructions can be found in that post. Its been a while since I presented to students. I did this again with a Year 3/4 class and they really enjoyed it, especially learning how to use different media and material. Well done to the students in Year 3/4 at Windsor Park Public, NSW, Australia.

Anyway, I presented this artwork to a Year 5/6 class and they were engaged from start to finish. They did a fantastic job with following the tutorials and in making their dragons their own.

It is the work of a incredibly talented young lady who I think has no comprehension of her wonderful her drawing and artistic skills. She did all of it without any of help from me. I just let her go. Its a beautiful artwork. Well done to all the students in Year 5/6 Murray at Windsor Park Public, NSW, Australia.....

There should not be an abundance of shapes as this will make it hard to see the lion head and features later on. 3. With a black maker, students need to draw lines from the egde of the lion's mane to the edge of there paper. NOTE: I used thin white ticket board as it has more strength than the usual drawing litho paper. 4. Students now use Sharpie coloured markers and fill in ALL the shapes in the artwork. This is the longest part of creating the artworks and it depends on the dexterity student as to how long it takes. My little Year 1/2 guys took about 2 hours. 5. When all the shapes are filled in, students add in patter...
