At the beginning of the quarter, students were introduced to the Elements of Design. The first element we worked with was line. Students learned about the variety of lines one could make, and our first big activity was "Drawing with Light." For two days, we turned of the lights, shut the blinds and took long exposure photographs of us drawing pictures in the air with flashlights. The images that were produced were fantastic. People have been drawing with light for decades. There are famous photographs of Picasso drawing with light from the 1950's.
It is exciting to see what kind of drawings can be produced by simple movements in the air. I published our photograph in an imovie and looped music into the background. I think it turned out nicely. Please check out the movie by clicking the link below!
