7th Gr. Gridded Drawings

For this project, students learned about photo-realist painter Chuck Close who uses grids to create hyper-realistic artworks. Students selected a photograph and gridded it and their drawing paper and copied the photograph square by square.  They did a wonderful job and greatly improved their drawing skills!
