Description
This project will help students create landscapes with swirling skies inspired by Vincent van Gogh's The Starry Night. Students learn about emphasis, movement, and warm/cool color schemes, and they use their own creative landscape ideas so that no two projects will look alike! Recommended for students in grades 4, 5, 6, and up, this art lesson will likely take about four class periods.
This lesson requires no prep aside from photocopying the student handout. Download and begin teaching right away! This could also work well as a sub plan with the detailed student instruction handout and the low maintenance material list.
This resource is delivered as a PDF that includes information about the art lesson and procedures for the teacher and two versions of the illustrated student instruction handout (one in color and one in black and white).
Materials needed:
- 9"x12" drawing paper
- Pencils
- Black permanent markers like Sharpies
- Crayons, Colored Pencils, and/or Markers
- Also recommended: Color Wheel poster/visual and Elements and Principles poster/visual
