Guided drawing on how to draw a Tiger.

Students trace their tiger using a sharpie so they will be able to see their black lines through the paint.

Students then paint the entire background of their canvas.

Once the paint dries students then paint their Tiger using black acrylic paint.

While waiting for paint to dry students brainstorm and sketch on black paper headphones, mustache, bows, ties, glasses, etc. to add to their final piece with glue.

The last step is using a Pollack technique splashing paint specks to the canvas as well as the dripping paint on the top.

This is one of my favorite lessons.

Students started with an eye study on how to draw realistic animal eyes. They used oil pastels for coloring. Students then began to paint on newspaper. Once dried students ripped and shredded the newspaper 📰 and glued onto their blank canvas.

Students then placed the eyes and nose over the newspaper and painted more in-depth details to create their cats and dogs. Multi step lesson with amazing results ❤️🎨😻🐶🤩
