"Beyond the Border" is an art project focused on mastering the principles of design: unity and emphasis. Our 8th grade artists created unified compositions by extending elements beyond the traditional canvas border. They experimented with color for emphasis within, and black & white contrast beyond the border. Using calligraphy pens, students learned to create value, adding depth to their compositions.

The 7th grade students learned how to transform shapes into forms using 1-point perspective. The drawing method is used in various disciplines and careers, including 3D modeling programs and architecture. For their culminating project, they stepped into the roles of architects and city planners, skillfully rendering a city street view in one-point perspective. Drawing inspiration from Georgia O'Keeffe's exquisite succulent artwork, students immersed themselves in the creative process of crafting their own close-up succulent drawings using chalk pastels. The emphasis was on the art element of value, as students skillfully incorporated shadows and highlights to give the illusion of three-dimensional form. |
