MLK Jr. Memorial

Creative Pro Ages 9 to 12 · Lots of detail Level 4/5

Tested by kids aged 9 to 12

This powerful tribute features the iconic Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial statue emerging from granite, with the famous quote "Out of the mountain of despair, a stone of hope" inscribed below. The monumental marble figure stands in contemplative strength, surrounded by textured stone walls that frame this symbol of civil rights history and enduring hope.

Coloring tip

Use warm skin tones for the figure and light grays or whites for the marble statue to make it stand out. The textured stone walls on either side offer a great opportunity to practice shading techniques with cross hatching or stippling for added depth.
