• October 27, 2007 - Artist Study Seurat
Our latest artist was George Seurat. It was a short study -- just two weeks mainly because we only had about ten different pieces of his art to study. We do artist study daily rather than weekly. My daughter has a natural gifting for art. I am doing all I can to stimulate that.
Here is Sprite working on her rendition of the piece she chose -- a circus scene.
Because we're studying these from Chinese books, I often don't know the actual English name of the work of art. But the French name (given in the book) is Circus.
Her notebooking page for this artist.
We tried using cotton swabs for painting dots on the small image of La Grande Jatte (Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte) above, but it didn't work so well on such a small scale. So Sprite just painted this larger one with watercolors:
I got this coloring page from the Dover sampler. Love that email!
And here is her finished version of the painting she chose:
This Seurat painting was her inspiration for this drawing.
