Halloween scene

Made by a student of grade 6

You need:

1. white drawing sheet A4 size


2. liquid water colour yellow and orange 


3. brush


4. jar with water


5. black markers


6. black construction paper for backgroud


7. glue or stapler

This lesson is about silhouettes. A silhouette is a shadow, you can only see the outside lines. Show  some silhouettes or shapes made with your hands. Show that sometimes the light comes through openings in the silhouette, so it is not just black.

Make the drawing sheet wet and paint it yellow and orange with liquid water colour to suggest a sunset. Draw a horizon line. Draw a house or a tree, and draw Halloween things around. Colour the silhouettes black and let light where it can. Paste or staple the artwork on a black sheet.
