Different art styles use shapes and forms in exciting ways to keep students interested.

Examples of Art Styles:

1. Cubism:

   • This style uses simple shapes like squares and triangles to break down objects.
   • Students can try making their own cubist portraits with these shapes!

2. Abstract Art:

   • Abstract art is about shapes and forms that stir up feelings instead of showing what we see in real life.
   • Why not create a colorful collage using a bunch of different shapes!

3. Surrealism:

   • Surrealism mixes realistic and strange shapes to create dreamlike pictures.
   • Students can draw fun landscapes with unusual shapes!

Engaging Students:

When we encourage students to explore these art styles, it helps them see how shapes and forms can express feelings and ideas in art. Doing hands-on projects sparks their creativity and helps them understand the basic parts like shape and form.
