HS Art 1 - Group Drawing Projects

Students in Art 1 have been doing lots of drawing assignments lately. This one was pretty interesting and a little tedious, but in the end helped encourage the students' drawing skills by forcing them to look more at lines, shapes, shading, and spatial relationships. Classes were divided up into groups of 3 or 4. Each group chose a black and white photo to reproduce in a larger format. Once they chose a photo, we cut the photos up into squares and each student had to reproduce 3 or 4 of their group photo's squares onto larger squares of paper. When they finished their squares, each group reassembled their group picture. They had to work together to try to match up lines and edges and shading. This project also showed them how to enlarge a piece of artwork while keeping it somewhat proportional to the original. Enjoy checking out our group drawing projects!
