It’s a process and the students came prepared to interpret the work of Jose Cruz onto their six panels. They broke into groups, brainstormed, started, we regrouped to talk about emphasis and focal point, as well as unity. They regrouped, sketched, had a critique moderated by Ms. Erwin and then got back to work. As they finished sketching I went over their line work with black tempera and got back to work with their collaborators to talk color. They blocked in with art stix and paint and then cleaned up. In two weeks they will be back at it to layer color and finish up. Week three is all about the installation. The parents were AWESOME! And I appreciate them so much as I do their children. What a wonderful experience. ♥
The kids look so proud! And rightly so — what a fun and fabulous project!
