Students then used a piece of white paper and a black wax crayon to create a picture of their choice.\u00a0 The criteria was that they needed to show different levels of value – some parts of their pictures were lighter or darker than other parts.\u00a0 This resulted in a quite dramatic effect in their work.<\/p>\n
