The Painted Apple

Two more weeks for summer break!!!  I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!!!
This was an end of year assignment that I gave my adv. students a few years ago.
 I found this old paper that looked like paper bags, but thinner.  I gave the students conte crayons and gave them a week and a half to complete.  No preliminary sketches, just straight to the drawing.
There was a relaxed feel to this assignment, the kids worked quietly and I could see that they were enjoying the process of just sitting down and drawing with these materials.  I will definitely do this assigment again next year.
