Welcome
to Online Art School
1.
Explain - 'tone' is a colour mixed with grey.
2.
Explore some artworks that use tones.
3.
Demonstrate making a sketch in yellow chalk of a person without
looking at the paper. Be sure to use large sweeping arm movements
to fill up the page. NB I use yellow chalk because it's easy to
paint over the construction lines.
4.
Have the children sketch a friend without looking at their paper.
Really encourage them not to look as it is heaps of fun to see
the finished portrait :)
5.
Alter a few lines to make the sketch as 'unrealistic' as possible.
6.
Paint the sketch with tones only ie colours / colors mixed with
grey / gray.
7.
Once dry outline in black paint with a thin brush.
8.
Hang and evaluate.
