Assignment

Hello, Artists!
Our very last art class assignment this year is the most important of them all! 
I have been observing you working on your projects throughout this year, using different approaches, techniques, styles and mediums. This time I want you to think about what you really like to draw. Some artists prefer to focus on portraiture, others paint still lifes or landscapes. Most of the artists have preferred tools or medium (paint, pencil, pastels, clay, paper collages). Use your artistic license, create something that you'd like to share with the world!

Assignment

Hello, Artists,
I hope you are enjoying your long weekend! This week's homework assignment is to draw a historical figure.
Here's a short paragraph from Wikipedia:

"A historical figure is a famous person in history, such as Catherine the Great, Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, or Napoleon. The significance of such figures in human progress has been debated. Some think they play a crucial role, while others say they have little impact on the broad currents of thought and social change. The concept is generally used in the sense that the person really existed in the past, as opposed to being legendary."

*Parents of 2nd and 3rd grades please talk to your children about who would be a good example of historical figure (as we haven't had a chance to have a class discussion).
