We love art!

This week has been very busy and very full. We are trying to catch back up to where we would be if we had not gone to public school.

Any how - this week in art we have been learning more about lines, shapes, and colors in art. We studied primary and secondary colors. We looked at art works like 'Two Cats' by Franz Marc and 'The Water Hole' by N. C. Wyeth, and many more.

The kids learned a little about the life of Franz Marc and we studied his painting 'Two Cats'. Then the kids made their own painting from primary colors (red, yellow, and blue). That was the colors of paint I gave them then they made their own secondary colors (orange, purple, and green).





















Lulu painted 'Cat in a Pumpkin' and Buster painted 'Buffalo Drinking'. They named their painting themselves. I am excited about what comes from their most recent art work. It is a multiple set process and today they will do their second step in the process.

We are excited about our art because our plan is to make our home into an art museum and send out invites for people to come join us to look at our art. Of course with refreshments!
