7/8 - Beyond the Border - 2017/18
7/8 students explored a variety of watercolor techniques on a sampler. This activity was useful when the techniques were applied to a painting called; "Beyond the Border". This lesson incorporated an understanding of "the rule of thirds". This technique emphasizes the focal point of a composition by visually dividing the picture plane into sections. The subject matter is placed in the middle section to create emphasis. The borders are emphasized with black pen and ink details. From weasels to turtles and dragons to birds, 7/8 students did an amazing job applying beautiful watercolor techniques.
