Impressionism

Students leaned about depth of field where objects closer to us appear to be larger than objects further away. Students also practiced realistic shading from a light source making something 2D appear to be 3D The light source in everyone's project was the moon. Students also had to include at least five pumpkins in their pumpkin patch. Students were then instructed to use their own creative minds and add any extra details they could think of. The mediums for this project were black construction paper and chalk pastels.
