Dessert Drawings-Yum!

We just finished Unit 1 and my third graders did dessert drawings inspired by Pop Artist, Wayne Thiebaud.  My students chose a yummy dessert to draw.  We talked about contour drawing and using form when drawing and coloring.  Then, they traced their drawings with glue to give it texture.  Finally, they used oil pastels to add color and more texture.  We talked about having a light source and using gradation to create the light source and form.  They turned out amazing!
