After giving a slide lecture on the element of design: LINE, I had my elementary students create contour drawings from yarn. Some students just did clumps or strands of yarn, while others attempted to represent horses or figures with long hair. The piece above started out as a still life of fruit, but once this 4th grader stepped back and looked at the banana, he decided to make it into a smile, making a banana mouthed man with yarn frayed hair. I told him I loved it so much that I would share it with all of you!
