Introduction to Painting

DP1 Lesson 30:
From Drawing to Painting

In this lesson, we explore the connection between drawing and painting, how each is distinct, and how drawing techniques may be applied to construct a painting. We create an artwork that combines drawing and painting techniques to explore these areas and depict an image of two worlds. Unfinished artworks that reveal the drawings underneath paintings help us understand how artists of the past applied drawing techniques to construct their paintings.
