Art Appreciation Composite Value Study sp12

Every semester I have my Art Appreciation students work on a charcoal drawing where one photograph is cut into approximately 1"x 1 1/2" sections and they are asked to enlarge their one section to a 4"x6" section.  They have been taught to sight lines and edges and have also learned to match and duplicate values.  Then their sections are put together to form a 24"x36" charcoal drawing.  Remember that most of these students have never had any art before.  They are non-art majors who are learning all these new skills by the fifth week of the semester!  The students are always amazed at what they have accomplished.  Hope you enjoy their success as well.

The students in the fall, 2011 Art Appreciation class were:
Brandy Bedingfield, Meagan Boeckman, Jason Gardner, Darian Glover, KaNesha harrison, Leah Hill, Karie Jackson, Dana Johnson, Dawn Johnson, Joshua Kipp, Hannah Mahin, Courtney McConnell, Danielle Moulton, Marie Mvoto, Chayla Parsons, Patrick Raab, Megan Stagner, Shelby Stehle, and Astrea Walker.
