Lesson Topic
Fall Landscape with Pumpkins: Foreground, Middle Ground, and Background.
Lesson Outline
I showed Libby my very favorite book from when I was a child entitled A Quiet Place. We both agreed that we love the illustrations in the book especially of the house, the cat, the little girl, and the little boy who screams. Libby giggled over the little boy who screams until the little girl shares part of her sugared bun with him. Libby said she would like to make a book like it. I told she absolutely could write her own story and illustrate it. Then I showed her the fall landscape I painted and identified the foreground, the middle ground, and the background. Objects in the foreground are larger in size, sharper in detail, and brighter in color. As objects move back in space, they get smaller in size, fuzzier in detail, and duller in color. I demonstrated how to draw pumpkins, and then had her try it. She drew her landscape with a tree, pumpkins, a house, and some cats. She will finish it next week during art.
