We had such fun with our graffiti pieces! And what a perfect way to start off the new Art Room semester. So many art elements and design element were involved, so it was a great way to review and exercise our skills for the new term.
We developed our words from a graffiti 'tag' to a shapely graffiti 'throw' and finally to a graffiti 'piece'. Our overlapping, highlights and shadows required careful thinking of shape, space, line and form. We practiced coloring techniques (gradation, value) and reviewed color schemes before choosing our colors. We created a brick wall using pencil and shading. Lastly, we 'tagged' our walls with a symbol or word to accompany our piece.
