Impressionistic Landscape
Students will draw an imaginary landscape using oil pastels in the style of Impressionist landscapes. They will use the oil pastels to create line and movement in their landscape, as well as incorporate the elements of balance and repitition. Students will need to take foreground, middleground and background into consideration in order to give their piece a sense of depth and perspective. Students will also reflect on their own work and explain how they used line, movement and balance to control the viewer's eye. Students will express how they manipulate the viewer and show positive emotions through the design and color of their landscape. They will discuss how our feelings are affected though certain colours and textures.
