Here's a great first project for the beginning of the year that I do with my mixed high school class. I call it the elements of art design. Essentially, students divide their paper into 7 sections- one for each art element. Then, using media and theme of their choice, they try to visually represent each element, trying to keep the whole artwork cohesive. It's very challenging!
The elements of art are the fundamental components that artists use to create visual art. These elements, often referred to as the building blocks of art, include line, shape, form, space, color, value, and texture. Understanding and utilizing these elements allows artists to express their ideas and create visually engaging works.
I love how this project allows for alot of creativity and personal choice.
I always get so many varied designs by my kids!
