Students will use the "worm's-eye-view" perspective to create two different scenes. Session 1: Using blue watercolor paint, we will create two backgrounds using wet-on-wet technique to create the illusion of water and of the sky at night. We will discuss and practice drawing trees for the landscape, and underwater life for the sea scene. Students will be able to choose sea life and research images for trees, corals, and sea animals prior to second session. Paintings need to dry thoroughly...

Week 1Lesson 1Painting the BackgroundsWe will create two backgrounds using wet-on-wet technique to create the illusion of water and of the sky at night. We will discuss and practice drawing trees for the landscape, and underwater life for the sea scene. Students will be able to choose sea life and research images for trees, corals, and sea animals prior to second session. Paintings need to dry thoroughly and be flattened, if possible, between heavy flat surfaces, such as books, as they will tend to curl when they dry.Week 2Lesson 2Finishing the LandscapeWe will use black acrylic paint to paint the land scene looking up at the sky. The teacher will demonstrate dotting stars in the sky with white paint and/or a white paint marker. Students may also make stars.Week 3Lesson 3Finishing the Underwater SceneWe will use black acrylic paint to paint sea life from the perspective of looking up through the water toward the sky.
As a licensed art teacher, I have developed techniques for breaking down drawing lessons into simple, easy-to-follow steps. Once we get the basics done, I give my students freedom to complete their project using their own imagination, thereby giving them the opportunity to take what I have taught them to a different, fun and creative level.
Sketchbooks and/or "practice" paper (like copier paper or a cheap tablet of newsprint paper) Watercolor paper Watercolor paint. Only blue will be used; a set of pan watercolors OR a single tube of blue can be used AT LEAST two paintbrushes: a medium flat brush and a very small round brush. A full set is preferred, to give students more choices. Black acrylic and white acrylic (can be craft paint) pencils, erasers, sharpener bowl of water (recycled sour cream or similar containers are GREAT for this!)
