Eighth grader William Edwards recently completed a beautiful drawing of the fourteenth Station of the Cross. Using the grid method, he created a freehand pencil and ink drawing of an illustration by artist Shari van Vranken. The final image, which you see here, is a photo of his drawing that he colored with the Sketchbook app on his iPad.
As shown in the photos below, fifth grade art students are currently applying paper mache to the surface of their relief sculptures of sea animals. Students used the grid method to draw from photos. After transferring their drawings of aquatic animals to Styrofoam sheets, students cut out the shapes of the animals with hacksaw blades. The form of each animal was built up with paper and tape on the Styrofoam base, which most students reinforced with splints made of popsicle sticks and tape. After applying paper mache and glitter glue to create a colorful skin, they will make hanging hooks with paper clips and screws.
