1C Art Lesson 2. Sketching portraits

Lesson: Art and design

Class: 1C - Mrs Carey Year: 2023 - 2024

In today's lesson we explored;
Tone and shade; we experimented by applying different types of pressures using our pencils to create different effects such as light, dark, lighter and darker.
We then practised drawing different types of lines such as thick lines, thin lines, curvy lines, zig zag lines etc.
Once we had completed our experimental stages, we went on to use the techniques to sketch our self-portraits. We observed the shape, size, tone and proportions of a partner's features by looking at each other and then used a mirror to observe the finer details of our own features.
