Hello friends,
Today I want to share a bit of our art class with kids.
We just started learning how to sketch. I don’t have any plastic fake fruits, so I just bought good organic once:-) Because I was going to eat them later.
Usually, I want kids to see how at the beginning they can simplify the model they are working on. Here, first we saw that the bowl with fruit can fit in a rectangle, so we draw as big rectangle as we can fit on our paper, leaving some space for sure.
Then we have to think what shapes do our fruits look like and draw the shapes, slowly adjusting them to make look like a pear or an apple.
Then, we compare where it’s lighter and where it’s darker, and shade according to what we see, to make it look more 3D like.
It’s harder and less fun to do sketching than painting for little kids, but they did great. We still have to practice a lot, but even just being patient and trying your best is a great sign to me.
I hope you enjoyed some of the process photos.
Thank you for visiting my blog!
