For this activity we created a piece of artwork inspired by Van Gogh. Our teacher started by giving us background information on Van Gogh and showing us some of his most famous work. For this work of art we glued down pieces of tissue paper and trying to overlap a few pieces. After we finished putting the tissue paper on we had to cover the paper in gloss. After it dried we created a landscape on a different sheet of paper and we glued the landscape on the paper with the tissue paper.
An extension activity would be for kids to read about Van Gogh or another artist and then create this project but instead of a landscape but a picture of a book and then students can write a book report about Vincent.
