When I was driving down the Golden Isle parkway this summer
on my way to Saint Simons Island, I saw a field full of beautiful sunflowers. I
also saw on Facebook a posting about a beautiful field of sunflowers in Bolingbroke.
These two sightings inspired my compilation of four art lessons based on
Vincent van When I was driving down the Golden Isle parkway this summer on my
way to Saint Simons Island, I saw a field full of beautiful sunflowers. I also
saw on Facebook a posting about a beautiful field of sunflowers in Bolingbroke.
These two sightings inspired my compilation of four art lessons based on
Vincent van Gogh’s Sunflower painting. Here is a portion of one of the lessons:
• Look at your sunflower. What would you draw first? A Circle for the
center? What would you draw next? Ovals for petals?
• Draw a minimum of 5 flowers on your paper with a pencil.
• Color brightly with crayons or oil pastels. No white spots of paper can
show on the flowers!
•
Outline the flowers
with black oil pastel or crayon.
•
Paint the white
background of your paper with light colors of watercolor.
You can find the whole package of lessons
including an introduction to Vincent bio page, photographic examples, and a
simple art assessment in my store at:
