Pastel Landscapes

This was a lesson based on different 1 persons prospective on a landscape. We were given a choice of different landscapes and asked to take it and design one based on the one we chose but put into our own prospective. We used oil pastels to shade and blend colors to create our landscape. We first practiced shading a ball by using a light source and then started on our project. We also learned that using blacks make shades darker. This could also be used in a language arts lesson by having students write a poem or story about something that happened in their landscape.
