For the last two weeks, my students have been focusing on observation in art class. The goal has been to represent and draw exactly what we see.
As a subject, we chose the famous portrait of Mozart as a young man. Here are a few samples of my students' work.
I think that they did a fabulous job of representing the many aspects of Mozart's personality. Of course, his wonderful music accompanied our artistic activities!
I'm so proud of these young people!
