van Gogh Paintings



This term our focus in art is painting. We started by learning some brush strokes and mixing colours and now we are painting pictures inspired by van Gogh. Last week we painted our version of "Starry, starry night" and this week we are painting flower pictures. van Gogh loved to paint flowers - in particular sunflowers. The children are learning to cover the whole page, to use different brush techniques in the same painting, to mix colours on the page and to paint a picture in stages and layers.
