Middle School Art - Mexican Hojalata

The latest country we "stopped at" in Middle School Art is Mexico. Students saw examples of the festive and colorful tin art called Hojalata that can be found in Mexican markets and is used as both functional and decorative art in their homes. We used extra heavy duty aluminum foil and acrylic paint to create our own version. Their creations are muy bien!

High School Art 1 - Drawing With Linear Perspective

The Element of Art we just completed looking at in Art 1 was Space. Students learned how to create a sense of space (or depth) in a flat work of art using different techniques. One of the techniques was using linear perspective. Students practiced drawing simple buildings with one and two vanishing points and then created a work of art using linear perspective. One student had fun challenging himself and tried drawing with 5 vanishing points! You'll enjoy seeing their compositions from their perspectives. :-)
