We have begun our learning journey on the elements of art.  We started with a discussion on what an element is – the parts that make up a whole thing – by discussing elements of music and literature, and then art.  Students learned that there six elements of art: colour, shape, line, form, texture, and value.

We used leaves to demonstrate our knowledge of these elements.  We did some outlining and some rubbing techniques.  The results are quite stunning.
