7th Grade Still-Life Project

My 7th grade classes are currently working on finishing up a still-life project.  In order to accommodate large class sizes, I set up three different still-lifes around the art room.  While I usually create a random grouping of objects for this type of activity, this year I decided to be a little more organized and grouped objects together based on a theme.  Still-life #1 was sports, still-life #2 revolved around little kids and still-life #3 used items found in the kitchen.  Students were able to select the still-life that they wanted to work on and gathered around it to get a close view.

Students have learned a lot about composition, shading with both pencil and colored pencil and have strengthened their observational drawing skills through this project.  I’m posting the photos of each still-life below for the students that wanted to work on them at home this weekend!
