Lesson for 7th grade
Students started by copying <trees> by Brayden Barrett. Next, they spent a couple days learning basic linear perspective with draw-alongs (they didn't have to use perspective in this project, but these exercises taught them about using a horizon and how to place items at varying distances on a ground plane). Third, they made thumbnails of their alien trees planted into alien landscapes (swamps, volcanic terrain, canyons, floating islands, etc).

While making thumbnails, they took a day to play with dzine.ai, and to AI-generate some reference photos for their proposed scene.
Using their AI refs, their Brayden Barrett refs, and their thumbnails, each student began an A3 watercolor using a limited palette (their choice of one of the below color schemes):
