7th Grade Sudents Hard at Work, Surrealism Perspective Drawing

Here are a few pictures of my students wood panel linoleum prints and their Surrealism 1 or 2 point perspective drawings. I began the project by introducing the work of Salvador Dali and the Surrealist movement. Students learned how to create symbols that represent their subconscious thoughts about themselves both positive and negative.  Each student created 3 or more pieces of architecture using perspective drawing to create their own mixed media piece that reflects their inner thoughts and feelings while showing the technical skills they developed.
