Today our 5th graders learned more about the word value. We talked about the various definitions of value and then we defined what value means in art. Value in art is a way to describe the darks and lights of a color. The students were challenged to create different values ranging from black to light grey using India ink in anyway that they desired through experimentation, The students were not only able to create different values, but they discovered various techniques in the process. The next lesson will be learning about Japanese Sumi-E ink painting and introducing the final project.
