Crazy Hair Line Portraits

Students in the senior grades have been learning about the elements of art this term. We began the term by focusing on the element of line, and how it is used in artworks. We looked at different ways of using patterns and lines to create interesting pieces of art, and experimented with ways of weaving lines and patterns together.

Students were shown how to draw a simple portrait and were asked to apply their knowledge of line to create character with crazy hair. Students were given time to practice sketching in their visual diaries before working on their final piece. Students used various tools such as pencils, fine liners, sharpies, and textas to create these stunning black and white portraits. We are absolutely amazed with the results! Students were meticulous in their efforts on these pieces and should be very proud.
