Lycée Louis Pasteur's new art teacher, Ms. Meighan Healey is teaching our Grade 7's about colour value and perspective. Ms. Healey holds a Bachelor of Visual Arts and Geography; she enjoys designing and implementing various art lessons to help students develop artistic awareness and appreciation.

Ms. Healey uses technologies like iPads and digital cameras to keep lessons interactive. The Lycée is excited to welcome her, and under her guidance anticipates great works of art by our students throughout the year

Using black, white and every shade of grey in between, students are sketching objects from different perspectives. Students use a viewfinder to find six unique viewing angles and recreate each perspective using pencils. Some of the objects the students sketched were eyeglasses, dictionaries, coffee mugs, paintbrushes, corks, and more.

Ms. Healey explains, "by using a viewfinder to frame the visible space, students are able to focus on details that might otherwise be missed. Some perspectives that are commonly used are bird's eye, worm's eye, and eye level - but I am really encouraging the students to challenge themselves to find perspectives that speak to them".
