Observational Drawings

Term: 1 Year: 2017

Year 7 students from Strathcona Baptist Girls’ Grammar School learnt how to draw from observation during the semester.

In these artworks, students learnt about the Fibonacci sequence and observed how succulents grow following this pattern. In this students used water-soluble fine liner and drew from post of succulents in the classroom.

They learnt about quality of line and how to render tone using crosshatching. To complete the drawing students used a watercolour brush to create a tonal wash from the fine liners.
