On Friday we had a lesson on the ‘elements’ of art. We discussed how elements are parts of a whole. The six elements of art are: colour; line; shape; form; value; and texture. To explore a few of these elements we did leaf rubbings using waxed crayons on paper. We will explore each of these elements over the course of this school year in more depth.
Here are a few individual samples of the students’ work. All of the art pieces are pinned to the bulletin board in our classroom. Come by and take a peek.
