Teacher’s comment by L.C. September 2016
“You are amazing! We are in our second year of becoming an Integrated Arts School. Your technique is a perfect starting point for elements of line. “
Here is a quote from the Washington Parent Trust about the Artabet;
“Just like you provide formal support in language development, you can provide early support in learning the building blocks of art, music and movement. For example:Drawing Skills:“I love how art teacher Ron Mulvey talks about the “Artabet” on his website:”
- If you were to teach a 3 to 5 year old to write you would start with the Alphabet.
- If you were to teach a 3 to 5 year old to count you would start with the Numbers
- If you were to teach a 3 to 5 year old to draw you would teach them the Artabet”
The “Artabet” includes the “6 universal lines” that Mulvey defines as: round and round, up and down, zig zag, wiggle wiggle, dot dot.” https://share.google/HUOOkR0TrT8GlrxZW
