4th Grade Abstract Landscapes

This week, 4th graders took a look at the difference between abstract and realistic landscapes. We looked at some artwork by Claude Monet, Winslow Homer, John Singer Sargent, Frank Hobbs, Liza Hirst, Erin Gregory, and myself too! We noticed the different brushstrokes and the attention to detail. We imagined how these artists created their paintings and then we painted our own abstract landscapes on a canvas board. The students used large brushes and acrylic paints. I especially love how each one is so different. Check out the results below and come see them at the art show on June 10th!
