Continuous Contour Shoes

First we discussed how many different lines there are. Then I explained that a continuous contour line drawing is a single line that creates a whole image. I let hem pick something for me to draw on the boars as an example(ice cream one, dog). Then the students practiced random objects around the room- crayon, computer, flowers. I then tell them to take off their shoe and put it on thetable in front of them. Theirgoal is to draw as much detail in their shoe filling up a half sheet of paper. They can use as many sheets as they need. Once they are happy with their shoe the use a light table or window to trace their origi.al shoe 4 times. Outline with sharpie. Paint with watercolor.

Celtic Roads

start with a piece of paper folded in four and draw a design in which the design goes off the edges that are folded and don't go off the loose edges.

trace over the design with a 6b or ebony pencil and fold the design over to the other quarter of the white paper. Rub the back until design lightly transfers. May need to use finger nail. Go over the now half page design again withtheebony pencil and then fold the whole shee in half so the design is on the inside,and then rub the back so the design transfers again. Then tape the celtic design, pencil side down to your final paper,and trace over the design with a regular pencil to transfer the design.

Trace over the transferred design with sharpie, and then color in with prisma colored pencils, colored pencils, or crayon.
