Art Project

Our inspiration for our last art project came from the book Katie Meets the Impressionists by James Mayhew. It was about famous impressionist painters like Monet, Renoir and Van Gogh. We looked at Van Gogh's painting 'Field of Poppies' and then tried to recreate it using small brush strokes with quite thick paint.
We found out that the impressionists painted most of their paintings outdoors. They painted natural things like trees, fields and oceans.
Do you have a favourite impressionist artist?
