Desert Landscapes



Third grade is currently working on desert landscapes. We studied the artwork of Rosa Bonheur and Albrecht Durer (because of their attention to detail and use of implied texture in their artwork) as well as the artwork of Winslow Homer to get a better understanding of perspective. These students are creating the background of their artwork. Next, the students will create rock forms as well as cacti (and position them to show an understanding of foreground, middleground, and background) and desert animals (using lines to create implied texture).
