3rd Grade Cezanne and Still Life part 1

The third grade started Unit 2 learning about the life and artistic style of Paul Cezanne.

I read a book about the history of Paul Cezanne to the 3rd grade class.  Like Jackson Pollock, the students enjoyed hearing about how he struggled in art class.  In this unit, the 3rd graders will be working on the following objectives:

-creating value to represent implied form

-drawing from observation

-stippling, hatching, cross-hatching

-composition

They first practiced drawing a still life and filling in the space on their paper.

.

Next, they learned various ways to create value.
