Description
Still life drawing projects are such an important starting project for an introduction to drawing or any art class. Perfect for middle school art or high school art classes, increase student buy-in by having them add their own pieces to the still life in this drawing lesson.
This still-life drawing project pushes students to practice drawing from life while falling back on techniques learned in Intro: hatching, cross-hatching, blending, stippling shading techniques, using a viewfinder and setting up a composition and focal point.
In addition to drawing the still life, the class is tasked with setting it up. They create a base using objects in the art room, then each student must add something personal to the still life. That object must appear in their final drawing.
All in all this drawing lesson pack includes:
➢A lesson plan (with a big idea, objectives, vocabulary, national middle and high school art standards, and step by step instructions on implementing the project)
➢Viewfinder template
➢Still Life PowerPoint
➢Critique sheet
➢Rubric
This is one of the first projects completed in my high school art drawing class. Typically, students are coming from Introduction to Art, and need a review on drawing and shading basics, as well as new techniques to build on the base that began in Intro.
