Body Proportions Explored.

Above is Izzabella's excellent work of art. To the right is Justice's amazing work.

I began the class with everyone following as I drew the 8 head sized  circles on the whiteboard, one above the other to show how the body's torso, waist, hips, legs, knees and elbows were proportioned. Then when we had established this in their sketchbooks for future reference, I had them make an picture of a person or persons on a blue cardstock by ripping the shapes out of colored construction paper. This way they could measure with the head size as they created their people in their artwork. 

Actually, they kind of forgot about measuring and just went to town ripping and gluing making their masterpieces. It was fun to watch them get lost in the process, accessing their right brains and going at it with enthusiasm.

Some more excellent art work. Kristen's on the left and Destin's jumper on the right. I really have to say that the whole class of Grade 6-8 students did a fantastic job. There was a lot of originality, creativity and movement in their artworks. Plus, best of all we had fun. Way to go guys, you all did very good.
