In this project, students will explore the use of symbolism by selecting an object of interest and creating a series of original drawings to incorporate into their mixed media artworks. The process includes research into narrative and symbolic works, as well as layering techniques. Students will draw from life, focusing on composition to create cohesive pieces that demonstrate a minimum of five layers, size (18x24), strong visual movement, and a unified color theme. The final assessment will evaluate composition, technique, originality, and craftsmanship.
