The document provides instructions for creating a white chalk drawing of a night scene with a light source. Students should first choose whether the light source, such as the moon, comes from the left or right side to create shadow effects. Next, they should sketch the main objects lightly without filling them in fully. Then they should add the background with the least amount of chalk since it is farthest from the light. After that, they should add the middleground with more chalk. Finally, they should add the foreground at the bottom with the most chalk since it is closest to the light source.

LIGHT AT NIGHT BY MICHAEL RAMSEY GRADES K-6 VISUAL ART - DRAWING
* Choose Light Source Position * Sketch Idea * Apply Medium * Background First * Middleground Next * Foreground Last Light at Night White Chalk Drawing
Choose Light Source Position Light source (moon) should not appear on the art work If light source is on the work, light will be shining in your eyes and blind you Choose light source to come from left or right side for shadow effects
Sketch Idea * Barely touch paper with medium to make the least visible line possible * Sketch outlines of main objects * Check the size and position of objects for correct proportion & depth (distance)
Background First The weak moonlight cannot travel great distances The background is the farthest away & will reflect the smallest amount of light so use the least amount of medium
BACKGROUND
Middleground Next * The middleground is added next * More light from the middleground reaches your eyes & requires more chalk applied to the paper
MIDDLEGROUND
Foreground Last The brightest light reflects from the foreground Objects in the foreground are drawn last because they require the most amount of chalk on the paper Foreground is usually at the bottom of work & will be smeared if not applied last
FOREGROUND
