experiences in the classroom

Drawing from collections was the first exercise in observation. Each class went through the same process. Slowing down and noticing edges and details was essential in discovering and recording the objects.

Using mark making as a means of describing our experience. Notations on paper - evidence of careful looking.

The line is bold and fluid. And permanent. Enlargements encourage detailed descriptions. Practicing noticing before taking our notebooks into the field.
