Cubist still life


 These always turn out well. I have the students divide their paper into random sections and then fill in some of the spaces with music sheets. Then as they draw the still life they must skip to a new area every time they reach a dividing line. ( The still life was kept on a rolling cart that could be safely tucked into the closet during my other classes. I would rotate it every day so they saw a new section without leaving their desk). Staying in warm earth tones helps pull together the classical quality of the subject matter.
