Anyone have any good ideas about using an artist as a starting point then letting children have various resources to create their interpretation. Thought of Monet, Van Gogh so far.

I have introduced Andy Goldsworthy and then provided lots of natural atelier materials for them to create their own interpretations.

We used Van Gough wheat field with crows during our topic on senses. The children recreated the pictures just using thir fingers, dabbing etc. They looked fab!

i have done Jackson Pollock - different ways to flick/ splat paint / use a pendulum to swing bottle of paint - also my children danced about with the dance ribbons saying they where painting like Jackson Pollock!

 

like above Mondrian - i have mine huge sheets of white paper and rollers and they made lines then filled in the gaps also outside made large Mondrian with paper sheets and garden cains

 

Lichtenstein - good for superheros and dotty pictures

also Georges-Pierre Seurat - picture made from dots

 

Lowry - stick men

 

Paul Klee - colored squares

 

look at cubism - make sculptures with cardboard boxes

 

erm.. i'll get back to you when i remember any others i have done
