Today Annie learned about blind contour drawing. We started by setting up a still life of two pears. Annie thought blind contour hard and did several sketches before deciding on this one for her painting.
Next I helped her trace the drawing onto bristol board. Then we both had fun mixing up some gouache in several shades of green. We had to look very close to see that the pears had other colors besides green.
This is Annie's finished painting which she took home to show her mommy when she returns home from work this evening. We had a fun afternoon!
