BURNT OFFERINGS

CHARCOAL CONES
7TH GRADE ART WHEEL - 2ND QUARTER   2015-2016
charcoal

We saw in the Graphite Sphere post the playful work of Salvador Ortiz
Once again he delights up with his subject matter.
He also makes sure we know who is the artist of this work.  LOL

Monica Lee once again brings her sophistication to her work thru her design and use of the medium.
I especially enjoy how she has moved the backdrop from light to dark.  
Adds a touch of atmosphere.

And ooh,
ooh,
ooh,
what do we have here Stella Hong?
Love the texture and scale you have brought to your work!
Brave and bold and wonderful.  :)

And no post is complete without Aaron Amaya.
The quality of his work is so beautifully sensitive,
his craftsmanship so clean.
I can totally see Aaron getting into illustration for children's books.

  1. Salvador's whimsical face brought to mind The Brownies of Palmer Cox created a century ago.

    And yes, I would love reading a book with Aaron's illustrations. What incredibly fine and varied detail he has coaxed out of the charcoal!
