BunBun One Day Watercolor Value Excercise



For this project, students are working on creating value with watercolor. Some students colored with crayon because their class was shorter. We made a monochromatic bunny with tints and shades of brown and gray.

Students were requires to make a scale of value from dark to light on the bunny's face and body.

 We looked at lots of photos of bunnies, colors, shape, and had Bunbun come for a visit.We looked at Bunbuns eyes, ears, and feet.

Begin with a simple sketch of an owl. The eyes need to be an eye space apart. The beak starts in between the eyes.  Next cover the background of the owl with a very light value of color.  Next use different brushes to create the feathers with a slightly darker value of color.

White feathers can be added on top of dark colored feathers. Add a white shiny or a few to the beak.
