In this lesson high school students learned about the art of silhouette, geometric and organic shapes, the principles of contrast and proportion. They copied the outline of their picture on a paper. I asked them to illustrate their goal, dream job, value, culture, religion, community, etc. inside their own silhouette and draw geometric shapes for the background. I asked them to think about hierarchy and make what matters the most bigger to show the principle of proportion and they had to choose their colors wisely in order to show contrast through their design. They were all so creative and came up with their own unique ideas!
