Bearden realized immediately that the light medium of stained glass was ideal for his image of the project. This is Bearden's only work in glass. With a finger, trace one of the building shapes in the air. Come as close as you can and look. Then move back or to the side at least 6 feet from where you first looked at the window.
Students create a painting of a city scene.
First, they make sketches from two viewpoints. Then they combine the ideas from the sketches into a final drawing that they then paint. To demonstrate understanding that what we see changes depending on where we stand. At each of 2 viewpoints, students hold up the viewfinder and sketch what they see. They can draw a scene from the classroom window or from inside the classroom, or from a photo of a city scene.
