We looked at natural objects for their distinct textures. This also was the first time that many students used a viewfinder to compose their art. Students placed their viewfinder (see the image on the left) over their subject matter until they found the best composition for their painting. This helps them to focus.  |
| Students had the choice to use an underdrawing or begin with paint. |
