Famous Paintings by Van Gogh!
Our home-schooled children have been learning all about the famous artist Vincent Van Gogh.
Vincent Van Gogh was a Dutch artist. He painted portraits and landscapes and used watercolours and oil paints.
He is famous for using bright colours and bold brushstrokes in his work.
He painted in a style called Post-Impressionism.
The children have been focusing on two of his famous paintings, Sunflowers (1888) and Starry Night (1889) and producing some excellent sketching artwork using a variety of directional lines.
Next week they will learn more about each individual painting and develop by adding colour to their artwork.
