Lights and shadows sharp


With the students of grade 8 (classe seconda B) we worked on the lights and shadows in the photograph. With the tracing paper and colored markers we have colored only the shadows, making these sharp and eventually using two colours. You can also paste the tracing paper on a sheet of newspaper to create a different background.

    So cool- I especially love the last one glued over the newspaper. These are all very well done!

      Thank you Miss! I like the effect of the drawing on the newspaper as well!

      Hi Miss Ortiz! I bought this tracing paper in Italy, I don't know if you can find the same... it's matt-opaque but transparent, and the weight is around 150gr. In italian language it's called "carta da lucido".
