Sunflowers
|
Katelyn has been introduced to a large variety
of authors and illustrators. She has had a wide range of experiences
at home and school with artwork and photography. In viewing
artwork, she has had the experiences of offering personal interpretations
and has created her own personal versions of famous paintings.
Katelyn's personal response to Van Gogh's Sun Flowers painting is
an example of how images and paintings can influence children's work.
Katelyn is exploring with different materials and art techniques in
her version of Sun Flower . She began by using pencil to sketch her
drawing and then has painted her outlines with warm water colours.
It is clear that she has thoroughly explored Van Gogh's painting
before offering her own appropriation. She had also worked extensively
with real sunflowers that had been brought into the classroom in mid-September
- wonderful, glorious flowers. |
