Subject: Perspective Author: Miss Fig [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 18:28:16 05/02/10 Sun I hate teaching perspective (any point) because of how BORING it is to just create a pencil drawing. I understand its value in any art class, but I want to do something more interesting with it. Any ideas??? [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: Re: Perspective Author: ArtC (not to busy to care) [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 21:54:26 12/04/10 Sat >My middle school kids are amazed when they learn how to write their name in perspective. Easier vesion would be a letter or just innitials. If no time to create a color background, letters could be cut out and pasted over a magazine image or a calendar which clearly depicts one of the taught perspectives. Kids also like perspective more if it is a part of something they love like cartooning. I hope that will help a bit. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
