Many 8th graders in art tech class are now applying color to their pencil drawings of the Stations of the Cross. They are using the tools of the Sketchbook app on their iPads. Although our students employ modern digital technology to develop their images, the basis of their work on this project is free-hand drawing with pencils and pens.
To begin this project, students drew grids with 1/2-inch squares on small prints of illustrations by contemporary artist Shari Van Vranken. They drew proportionate grids with 1-inch squares on their drawing papers in order to scale up the images they were viewing.
The works shown here are among the first to be finished. Many more very strong images are nearing completion. Students have been highly motivated on this project because it allows them to express their faith in a creative and challenging way.
