Visual art curriculum supplement: art style challenge

by BITE Staff 

What's your style? In the "Art Style Challenge", a supplemental art activity created by NorCal teacher Matt Milton, students create a drawing in their own style and then create a second drawing referencing the style of another artist. 

Once the students complete both drawings the last step is to write an essay reflecting on the style in the drawings and how they chose to draw the reference piece the way they did. 

This assignment includes a rubric for easy grading, and should take 1-2 hours for students to complete depending on their familiarity with drawing and writing an essay.
