Atmospheric Perspective

   Finally a chance to update my blog!  I have a student teacher hard at work and I thought I would use this time to post work we did at the end of last school year then I can focus on this year.
  At the end of the year 4th graders did these landscape paintings with tints and shades.  After looking at real life examples of this natural occurrence students drew layers of a landscape, then mixed value from lighter to darker. You can find more scientific information including how Leonardo DaVinci used atmospheric perspective at http://legacy.mos.org/sln/Leonardo/InvestigatingAerialP.html.
