For the Art 1 chalk project we looked at the American Southwest artist Georgia O'Keefe. I love the large, close up views of her flowers and I think it is the perfect project to do with chalk. I think the chalk can also add a sense of softness that she has brought to her flowers. It also spreads well and can cover a large area with little effort.
That being said, I (like most art teachers) have a love hate relationship with chalk. I love what it can do, but I hate the mess that it leaves behind. We make large 18x24 drawings, that are very beautiful, but leave behind a color bomb in my classroom. It looks like we did our own color run in the art room.
Anyways, here are a few on my favorites.
