Culture Silhouette and poetry: Sense of Place

I created this image as a mockup to show willow plates and aerial perspective to my middle school. We discussed themes, outlines, as well as borders. The willow plate lesson was about trade between Asia and Europe. I used the porcelain willow plate as an example of Asian trade and for their art project. My students enjoyed transferring their outline drawings using tracing paper onto paper plates. The students explored monochromatic color with paint. The students learned that aerial perspective is different from one point perspective.
