Byzantine Art Project!
Currently students are working on a project inspired by the Byzantine Era. For this project, students learned about Byzantine Art and studied different patterns and motifs used during this period. They then chose an image inspired by Byzantine themes and made a one inch border around their paper in which they incorporated Byzantine patterns. They then drew their image in the center in colored pencil. When this is all done, they will use gold leaf in one area of the artwork to create a focal point or highlight the border. Above is my in-progess example. Check out this page in week to see the students finished projects! They are turning out pretty amazing so far!
