Last Thursday we had a discussion on the Elements of Art. \u00a0Students learned what an element is (the parts that make up a whole thing). \u00a0We then discussed the six things (elements) that make up Art – colour, form, shape, value, line, and texture.<\/p>\n

On Friday, students explored these elements through the media of wax crayons and leaves by experimenting with rubbing techniques. \u00a0They outlined some leaves to show ‘line’ and ‘shape’. \u00a0They used a variety of ‘colours’. \u00a0By putting more or less pressure on the wax crayons they were able to show ‘value’ (lightness and darkness). The feathery look of the rubbings inferred ‘texture’. \u00a0The only element that was not able to be demonstrated was ‘form’ as the leaf rubbings cannot be picked up off of the paper.<\/p>\n

The students’ work is on the bulletin board in the hallway outside of our classroom.<\/p>\n

Here are some portions of the rubbings:<\/p>\n
