10/28 6-8 Art


Hello Artists, 

This week you will be finishing up your line drawings by adding some color. I am also including an optional activity, the foil spider. It's a pretty fun project, so if you have foil at home I encourage you to give it a try! Check out the instructions in the video below. 


Supplies:

-spiderweb drawing from last week
-markers or colored pencils

Instructions:

If you have not yet outlined your spiderweb and designs in sharpie do so before you add color. Color your spiderweb with markers or colored pencils. It's ok to leave some black and white, but add color to at least half of the web sections. 

This completed assignment is due Friday 10/30. Please share your final art piece in the Flipgrid art gallery using the following link and check out art from other students, as well.


 I can't wait to see what you create!

💜
Melissa
