Description:
Students first learned about the artist Vincent Van Gogh and his type of artwork, especially the abstract line work. Students also had to write three things they learned about Van Gogh. Students then created a project by using tissue paper and glue as the background. Students the created a black foreground/silhouette to be the man focus of the project. Students then used oil pastels to create the famous Van Gogh swirls and added onto the foreground to make it pop.
Extension Activity:
Van Gogh often painted different types of flowers so a science unit about flowers could be incorporated into this activity. The students will do a project that shows Van Gogh's paintings and then explain what type of flower it is, along with the lifecycle, structure, pollination, and environmental impact.
