Module 1 aims to jumpstart students on how to use observational skills to identify shapes, colours and tonal variations. Lesson 1. 3 Tones aims to show that artworks involved more than just one colours but comprises of different shades and gradients. We first introduce the student to the topic and illustrate a scale from light to dark to articulate how light and setting casts different shades of grey through tones and shadings. The student learns to comprehend how light is casted to form different shades of grey for the shadow. They can then communicate the tones and shades needed to create a work that has form and shape. (Artwork by Xin Ci, 8 yrs old, Tampines Branch)

In Lesson 3.5, students get to try out dot painting, which is used in both Aboriginal art and Impressionist art. They will learn to use dots to add colour, texture and details to painting. Students will learn to use dots of different colours to add shadows, highlights and contrasting warm colours to create an image. (Artwork by Jensen Lim, 9yrs old, Parkway Branch)

In this module, students are exposed to fundamental drawings where they learn how to draw observationally of various subject matters. Students will learn about the important factors in drawing such as scale, details and form. They will also develop sensitivity in line quality, the use of both thick and thin lines and be exposed to compositional skills and the idea of balance and scale.

In Lesson 9.2, students are being introduced to Neo-Impressionism with artist Georges Lemmen as the artist study. Using the dominant technique of Pointillist and Divisionist from the beginning of the Neo-Impressionist movement, students learn how to create their self-portrait using these techniques of placing dots or patches of colours to achieve the optical illusion of colours mixing.  Artwork by (Left) Jayden John Leow (9yrs old, Bukit Timah Branch), (Right) Amir Hadi (9yrs old, Bukit Timah Branch)
