Demonstrating Contrast

Eighth graders have just completed a project that I must say turned out amazing! Students learned about value the first couple weeks of class, then used what they learned to make patterns create contrast. Eighth graders chose the first letter of their first or last name and used different fonts to draw it nine times. Students then attempted to make the letter contrast with the background using light and dark values. Here are some great examples that are currently on display in the art room:
