Kids Workshop: Abstract Shadow Exploration and Painting with Sydney Chabot

Using graphite and tempera paint, students will create imaginative compositions using tracings of shadows. Students will create abstractions by tracing shapes and silhouettes found from local flora and architecture. They will choose how to divide their drawing into positive and negative space by filling in shapes with graphite, and paint them in with colorful tempera.
