This excellent one-page worksheet allows your students to look at the mark making in Van Gogh’s drawings.
Stick and ink works particularly well with this resource or you could use pencil, pen, pastels or little marks made with brushes.
A great art cover or sub lesson. Students think creatively and turn the circles into different drawings on this one page resource.
Includes lesson plan which has full instructions and an extension idea.
This super-useful worksheet teaches students the art of cross hatching. It gives two examples, Durer and Da Vinci and asks student to complete two tasks. This would fit into any drawing skills workshop or work as a cover lesson or homework.
There are two versions of this one page resource - one which uses the word ‘tones’ and one which uses the word ‘values’.
Click on the drawing skills bundle to the right of this resource to buy this with other drawing skills worksheets.
This worksheet has been designed for gallery visits. There is a space in the middle to make a sketch. It asks the following questions:
Your Name
Title of Artwork
Name of Artist
What have you looked at?
What media has the artist used?
what colours has the artist used?
What kind of marks or techniques has the artist used?
What kind of shapes and forms can you see?
How does the artwork relate to other artworks in the exhibition?
How does the artwork make you feel?
The same worksheet is uploaded as a .jpg and pdf. I'm not sure why you can only see the top part of the pdf. When you download it, it is all there - I have checked!!
Keywords: gallery visit, gallery education, analysing art, visiting galleries, gallery activities.
5 Owl Grid Drawings.
Go on, you know you wanna.
Teach drawing skills, such as line and tone. Ideal for homework, a cover lesson or some end of term fun.
There are two versions of this Pointillism worksheet.
The three eyes at the top of the page are good examples of what you want your students to create. Both worksheets ask students to create a scale of tone using dots. The first then asks students to draw and use pointillism to create an eye. The second, easier worksheet, asks students to add dots over a very faint image of an eye.
This could fit into a pointillism scheme of work (perhaps when looking at Seurat) or be useful as a homework or cover lesson.
Keywords: Pointillism, Drawing, Seurat, Tone, Mark Making, Drawing Eyes.
This useful presentation could be used to start many different projects but was written for a scheme of work that focuses on 'Close-Ups'.
A script is included as part of the PowerPoint.
See my 'Georgia O'Keeffe Close-Ups Project' in my shop which includes lesson plans, worksheets, assessment sheets and much more.
Learning Objective: To practice careful observation and detailed drawing.
Complete the detail on the blank half of the crab. There are three versions of this. A plain one, one with a title, and one with 8 spaces to add keywords. These keywords could describe the crab.
This could fit into a mark making project or a natural forms project.
Don't you find that when you are marking compositions that you are writing the same thing again and again? These stickers address that problem! This set of stickers includes each type of error students make both as a target and as a Question. (I know that in some schools like mine, you have to mark with a question!)
Targets and Questions include: annotation, identifying students best design, colour, contrast/tone, links to artists, quality of drawing, and using the space on the page well.
These stickers are made to go on Avery L7163 or stickers that are 99.1mm x 38.1mm.
In my shop I also have a set of stickers for marking a drawing. Click on my name above to go to my shop.
Happy and Speedy Marking
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.
Don't you find you are writing the same thing again and again when you mark drawing? The attached 7 pages of stickers will CUT YOUR MARKING TIME IN HALF as they give a target for the 7 most common mistakes.
Stickers include targets for: improving the overall shape, not giving a drawing a dark outline, adding more detail, smoother shading, not working too faintly, not working too small, not smudging work.
These stickers are designed to be printed on Avery L7163 or stickers that are 99.1 x 38.1 mm.
Should you think of a common mistake that students make that I have missed out email me on scrowther99@gmail.com and I will add it to the selection.
