Fourth Grade Figure Drawings

Fourth grade artists wrapped up their study of Edgar Degas and figure drawing as they created these ballerinas and martial arts figures.

They learned about Edgar Degas and how he captured movement as he drew ballerinas as they rehearsed.

After posing and drawing each other and drawing from wood mannequins, they had fun showing movement in these cute drawings.

This project was inspired by fourth grader Nathan, who loves to draw martial arts figures!
