Shiny!
This slide art lesson plan helps high school students discover how to create shiny effects with pencil. It takes them through the process of drawing a spoon from observation by starting from the biggest ideas and refining the shape. It then leads students through the value scale to help demonstrate how shiny effects can be created by manipulating light and dark values and placing them next to each other. By the end of this lesson, students will create a realistic drawing of a spoon from observation that is shaded.
