Transitional Primary Draws With Tape

For our transitional primary artists, we started off the year distinguishing between several types of lines we see in art (diagonal, horizontal, and vertical).  We got some inspiration from Australian graffiti artist Buff Diss, who creates large scale murals, on buildings, sidewalks and walls using masking tape.  We took the challenge to let go of how we are use to drawing with a pencil and switched over to some masking tape and a pair of scissors.  Students got good at measuring their tape to fit their format and some even created patterns.  How many different types of lines can you spot?
