What should I draw as a gift to my art teacher? And what should I give her?

Question

She is a really cool teacher! She taught us about charcoal and using lighting to create picture.... I want to know what to draw to show her I actually listened to what she was saying and applied it..What to draw!

Btw I am a young High school student

Answer 1

Self portrait (face), everytime your teacher looks at it, he/she will remember how great a student you are. Self portrait isn't easy anyway, it is hard to get the expression right because you want to convey more than just... you.. a self portrait should contain at least some sort of emotion.

Answer 2

As a former art teacher and a practicing artist, I can tell you that anything you draw and give to your teacher will let her know that you really care about what you learned from her. I would suggest doing something simple and familiar to you. Here are a few ideas to get you started: a pair of your shoes as if they have just been kicked off, a simple white mug with no decoration sitting on a window sill, or a few eggs on a plate with a strong light on one side so you can see the light and shade. Best advise I can give is "Keep it simple". We all try to do too much and so one or two items makes the best sense. Good Luck!

Answer 3

I'd recommend a portrait of your teacher, perhaps in the act of teaching / making a point, but not looking directly at the viewer. Or, perhaps, a quiet moment, when she's reflective and thinking about something -- a candid portrait. (Maybe you can get a friend or another teacher to help you getting a photo that you could work from). Look at some of Rembrandt's portraits, or Da Vinci (he was the master of shading -- also called something else -- Italian -- I forget). Use what she has taught you, with charcoal, etc. It is something that she could treasure for years to come.
Don't forget to sign and date it!

Answer 4

Try to remember what your teacher had mentioned she was doing on her own time. Was she improving her painting techniques or working on a large drawing project? What about finding a book on that subject? Try using a single light on a desk and a mirror and draw a self-portrait. Don't pressure yourself, it will show, have fun and keep it simple; you may become a Rembrandt later on in life, but she will appreciate your work as it is now.

Answer 6

A nude portrait of yourself. This is the ONLY way to make her unsderstand how you really feel about her. Anything else will just be a token jesture and will get a half hearted response.

Answer 7

Use the many artstyles she taught you and somehow incorprate them into a picture of how that class went for the year or semester or however long it lasted. show her how much you enjoyed the class and listened. I love art so i hope this helps at all.
