Shadow Drawing and Shadow Projection

Shadow Drawing and Shadow Projection: Preparatory Steps in Grades 4-6 for the Grade 7 Study of Perspective

This inspiring booklet describes the importance to children of the experiences they can undergo when their love of drawing is combined with the discipline that comes from doing exact and precise work. The author deals with the necessary preliminary work in the early classes, which lays a foundation for the study of perspective. He then leads the reader helpfully through a series of 37 illustrative exercises, to reveal just how these lessons can be approached.

About the Author

Colin Price qualified originally as an artist in England in 1962, with a focus on painting. He followed that with a training as a Public School teacher, and subsequently taught in three different Public Schools. Dissatisfied with the lack of real pedagogy and insight into the growing child, he found his way to Emerson College where he took a Waldorf teacher-training under that inspiring individual Francis Edmunds.
