Three useful worksheets to complement any Angie Lewin Project The first worksheet I use to get my class to work in different media in the four different boxes e.g. hot colours, cold colours, blending, pencil work, watercolour etc The second sheet has blank boxes. This would be useful if you wanted your class to come up with four different designs for a final piece. The last work sheet is a larger line drawing. You could either work in one media (perhaps the one that was the most successful on the first sheet) or use a compass or viewfinder to select sections of it, and work in different media. These would also be useful for cover work.
