Students will learn a brief history of the street and graffiti art movements and key terms affiliated with them. Afterwards, students will be supported in developing a chosen word or name that has a particular personal meaning they wish to stylize and sketch with pencil. They will then be directed about background elements and encouraged to color or develop the piece as they see fit. By the end of the session they will have a better understanding of this type of expression, when it's considered art and not in society, and lessons of principles such as value and typography.
Learning Goals
Students will learn the basics of some form of graffiti lettering and the street art movement.
