Artists use magnifying glasses to see small details of their shells while drawing from observation.
Student points to his labeled drawing. The foreground depicts a basket of natural objects including shells, bones, and rocks.
Student investigates a deer skull through drawing.
Drawing of the skull that breaks the frame of the drawing.
Springtime means investigation of nature. Gr 3 artists are looking deeply to study and draw collected shells, stones, and bones. Observing those details and shadows are key. #scientificillustration #elementaryart @campbellaps.bsky.social @campbellturtles.bsky.social @apsva.us

One of the things I find most inspirational in creating art is engaging with kids on how they perceive it. This is my little nephew & me in the National Gallery. He made a beeline for this Picasso! His excitement is how I approach drawing as you can see in this thread of my art!
