Grade 1/2 Charcoal Landscapes

By Ella (Grade 2)


Lesson Materials (per student):

1 stick compressed charcoal
1 sheet A3 white art paper
1 sheet newspaper (to lay your paper on)
Landscape photos (showing landscapes with a large range of textures)

Lesson Steps:

1.  Look at the photo you have chosen.
2.  Carefully draw the outline of all the large shapes and horizon line.
3.  Look at where the shadows are in the image and use colouring and smudging to recreate these shadows in your drawing.
4.  Add in fine details such as leaves and grasses, using a range of different mark-making techniques (thin lines, thick lines, flicks, arcs, etc)
