Ribbon Letters
The 8th Grade Art Students developed and refined their pencil drawing skills with our "Ribbon Letter" project. Students were introduced to the work of American contemporary artist, Ed Ruscha. They selected an interesting word and created it out of white strips of paper. Then, looking at their paper strip word, they drew it on gray paper - perfecting their observation skills. They replicated the values of their paper model using white and black pencil shading.
