A new approach to art! Written by experts in the field, series encourages kids to interpret what they see in famous artworks, then try the techniques themselves. For each artist, a color reproduction of his or her famous artwork is paired with questions to get kids thinking about what they see. A short paragraph explains the artist’s intentions, emphasizing facts of interest to kids. Easy-to-follow activities then provide hands-on experience with the artist’s techniques, subject, and mediums, each illustrated with examples by actual kids. Techniques include drawing, painting, pastels, collage, watercolor resist painting, pointillism, sponge painting, mask making, printmaking, sculpture, and more.
