Stephen Lursen Art — free lesson plan

Using your poem as the literary source material for your illustration. I would like for you to illustrate your poem in a thoughtful and meaningful way. Make it look good! Do your very best to follow all the following directions to achieve the most professional result.

Step 1: Create a story board for your poem.

Step 2: Analyze your three storyboard images and select your favorite one that best illustrates the mood and narrative of your poem.

Step 3: Using your favorite storyboard mock up as a base inspiration image, you will now illustrate your poem on a clean white sheet of paper with a pencil.

Step 4: After you complete your pencil drawing, you need to trace over it with a black ink pen or extra fine tip marker.

Step 5: Once your illustration is traced over in black lines, you need to colorize your picture.
