City planner, amateur artist, and ACS alumni parent Peter Karabashian gave a presentation on “The Power of the Line” to the students in Ms. Mirakian’s 7th grade art class as a guest instructor on Tuesday, February 20. Mirakian said the class has been studying some of the elements of design, including line, color, space, texture, and value. Karabashian demonstrated on a white board how to use different types of lines to create a landscape scene, incorporating mountains, trees, the sky, and a body of water. The students followed along, step-by-step, on their own drawing paper, each creating their own unique drawing of an outdoor scene. The students’ drawings will be on display for several weeks on the bulletin board in the hallway outside the Art Room.
