Artists







Sorry for the delay in postings! I have been having camera troubles and have gotten behind! A few weeks ago we learned about a variety of artists. We then got to make our own masterpieces in the style of those artists. We made a Picasso masterpiece, a Miro masterpiece, a Matisse masterpiece, and a Michelangelo masterpiece. When we made our Michelangelo picture, we had to lie down on our backs and color on a sheet of paper underneath our desks. That was to see how it felt for Michelangelo who had to lie down on his back for 3 years to paint the Sistine Chapel. The kids had a blast doing this and their pictures turned out...interesting! We discussed that Michelangelo had to be really good at what he did to be able to paint so well that way!
