"In-Between" Seasonal Artsy Lesson

I cannot resist doing something with leaves for a mini-break from our drawing lessons...

Take a look at the examples of different ways to decorate leaves. 













Embellish a leave with the element of design SHAPE or LINE.   When we repeat a shape or line it creates PATTERN and MOVEMENT.  Many cultures and artists use REPETITION of shapes, line, and color to create beautiful works of art. 










Take one leaf from my collection and create a pattern using line, shape, and color!  If you would like to do more bring some leaves in from home. All you have to do is go outside and find some leaves that aren't too dry, maybe they are still on the tree and then place them in a book to flatten them. 
Bring them in to the next art class to make into stunning works of art!
