Art Techniques

We had a whole school art day where we learnt some basic art techniques. First we had to choose the shape we wanted to use for our art. Next we learnt to sketch so that if we needed to make changes we were not committed and could rub out. Then we used black to go over our drawing and create our outline. Once this was done we revised the correct way to hold a paint brush and wipe off excess dye before painting. We had to make sure that we painted inside the lines and did not let the dye run. We had to be able to explain our art and the reason we choose to that picture and what it meant.
