WHAT'S YOUR POINT?

CHARCOAL CONES
7TH GRADE ART WHEEL - 2015-2016 - 4TH QUARTER
charcoal on paper

Just love the creative ways kids figure out how to compose a cone.
Let's see.

How about lots of them?
And by putting many of them on the diagonal,
Sachi Nandedkar has been able to bring a lot of movement into her work.

Most of the students,
even after being asked to look at the great examples on this blog for homework,
still only put one cone in the center.
Their critical thinking skills have just not clicked in yet.
I like that Kristiana Flores put in two with wonderful texture for the eye.

And love, 
love,
 love this creative piece by Shukthi Senthilraj.
Probably one of the most creative ones ever conceived here.
Plus she's picking up lots of extra credit for bringing in all that colored pencil work.


And again,
the powerful diagonal.
The eye really enjoys it.
Also check out Danielle Louie's fabulous fore & backgrounds.
What a beauty!

  1. So impressed with the consistency of Sachi's many cones ... so similar, but with enough variation to make each one unique.

    And Danielle's single cone gives so much to look at: the page so satisfyingly full of texture, the light and shadow so believable.
