SKETCHING

First students will practice with drawing the shapes and details of the Alpaca's face.

When they are comfortable, we will move to the final paper.

DRAWING

Face can be drawn in upper half of paper to show off the long neck.

Start lightly with a pencil (always)

Then when it looks how you like it, go over with marker or make lines darker.

COLORING

Students will color alpaca using oil pastels or crayons. They need to use at least three colors blended on the entire alpaca. 

I will show them three ideas from these sources...

The edges need to be colored the hardest (for later resist purposes).

Students will be encouraged to color Alpaca in unnatural colors.
