What is proportion?
This Art and design video introduces learners to the concept of proportion—how the size of one object compares to another—and explains why getting proportion right can help make drawings look more realistic and balanced. Through observation and examples, learners explore how to judge size relationships and how artists can play with proportion creatively for effect.
This video is part of Kapow’s Art and design resources, which support the Cambridge Primary Art & Design framework. As part of the Drawing with realism: Exploring tone, texture and proportion unit, this lesson helps children develop their observational drawing skills and understand scale in their artwork.
