I wanted students to draw an architectural drawing and I loved the outcome of our last project that was done in oil pastels, so we combined the architecture of New Orleans and the bright colors of the oil pastels. I think the combination worked out great!
Before starting on the project, we viewed some video clips of the jazz scene in New Orleans. The students got to hear the music, see the bright colors and the brilliant architecture of the city. They also saw the devastation that occured from Katrina. I think that their work captures the essence of New Orleans from an interesting point of view.
