Finding Marks Through Drawings Made by Artists
By Paula Briggs
This resource shares a way to introduce learners to the diversity of mark making at their disposal when making drawings. By deconstructing drawings made by artists, we can begin to build our own vocabulary of marks, and start to make our own creative decisions about when to use a certain mark in a particular context, and understand how the marks we choose will affect the final drawings.

I love this resource. Mark making is such an important step in exploring mediums, building confidence & understanding different approaches to visual responses. I especially love how many visual references are used. A great reminder of how important foundation exercises are.

This is exactly what I need as an exercise for a staff inset – it’s more about training staff so that they can help children’s confidence when faced with a blank paper. Children of all abilities will love this. I’m a fan.

Glad you like it – far better to let children discover for themselves (inspired by others) than we tell them via worksheet xp
