This month we have had the opportunity to learn about and paint in the style of two different famous artists. First, we studied Russian artist Wassily Kandinsky. He is known as the father of abstract art. He is also famous for being able to hear color and see sound. Here is a video of a picture book about Kandinsky.
In his style, we used watercolors to paint dots inside of a large heart. The students really took their time to create very original pieces.
Next we learned about American artist, Georgia O'Keeffe. We made giant poppies using oil pastels and water color. They turned out so pretty. These will be our "Original Works" art pieces. So, you will have the opportunity to order various products made with your child's art. Look for this artwork coming home with an order form mid March.
