Town Banners
The Art 9 class will be creating banners for the Town of Athabasca! These banners are 6'x2' and hang from the light posts. The theme of the Art 9 banners will be "Trees of Athabasca."
You will learn about the variety of trees in Athabasca; to become acquainted with the variety of trees, you will study and draw them (paying particular attention to the edges, proportions and interior lines). From there, you will learn about colour theory, as this will help you with your banner's 'feeling' (as colours show emotion!).
In groups of three, you will then plan out your banner's leaf visual, transfer it onto the canvas and then paint it front and back.
