I needed a new warm up exercise for my after school drawing class, and a chance
crossing with a candy store brought me a quick solution – lollipops.
I handed out the pops and the kids lightly traced the circle and then
drew their own stick. The drawings were then traced over with a black
marker and filled in with colored pencils. Older students were shown how
to add shadow to the stick by just shading half of it gray. And of
course, they got to eat the lollipops when they were done. Sweet!
