About this School Project (Value Skyline)
We discussed the idea of atmospheric perspective and how when we look out into the world and we see layers in the landscape (or cityscape) the objects become lighter, cooler, and less detailed the further away they are. Students then created their own value skyline creating a layered cityscape with each layer becoming lighter as it recedes. They had the option to finish their value change and coloring with paint or coloring tools such as crayons, color sticks, or color pencils.
