Romanticism Unit















In Red 2 art classes we learned that the Romanticism period was a time filled with dark images. They were interested in war, storms, the dark side of life. We drew a white cloth that had been draped over something and all the lights turned out in the room to gives us lots of great shadows. This was a hard concept for the kids to try and draw the cloth in a way that showed the folds using light and shadow. I have to admit it was a little hard for me too.
