Grade 4 Gallery - Christmas Lamp Post
Students enjoyed this simple oil chalk drawing of a lamp post. They added the lightest value at the center of their paper with it gradually getting darker to the edge of the paper to give the illusion of the lamp being lit. They added salt to their watercolors to give it a "snowy" effect. Lastly, a bright red bow.
