Hannah started taking an art class once a week just after school started last fall. She has been sketching pictures for a long time and had started to watch "how-to" videos online. From the first day of the class I was very impressed with what she can do. The teachers give the kids verbal guidance so the finished product is all produced by the students.
The caterpillar was from her very first class. She started with a reference picture that showed which shapes to use to form the caterpillar. She has since progressed to no-step which means she has to come up with the shapes to form the picture on her own. The background and added objects are from her imagination.
The parakeet was a new concept because she had to figure out how to make the bars look curved.
Some of these photographs of her work are kind of fuzzy because I took them with my phone instead of my good camera, but I think they still show the progression in her work. She has a done a couple more in class, but I haven't taken pictures of all of them.
