Van Gogh Sunflowers- Kindergarten Style

I saw this great short, but sweet post on another art teacher blog called ART PROJECT GIRL (the link is shown below).  I thought it was a great one day project for kindergarten that covered some key art concepts and ideas.

Concepts Covered:

• Artist Introduction- Vincent Van Gogh
• How to Talk About Artwork (Class Discussion on the shapes and colors we see)
• How to hold a paintbrush
• How to make thick and thin lines using the same paintbrush
• How to outline using paint
• How to create a flower similar to Vincent Van Gogh's Sunflowers

Look at these students hard at work!!!!

First we started by making dots.
Then we used our paintbrush to make thick or thin lines.
And lastly we used a small paintbrush to make our black outlines.
