About this School Project (205 Impressionism and Monet)
Last week, students heard the story Monet's Garden. They learned about the roots of Impressionism and how Monet is famous for creating art in a new way. Students used watercolors to create a light background, and they added oil pastel details to create the bridge and water lilies that made Monet and his garden famous. I challenged them to try to create perspective by having the lilies get smaller and closer together towards a vanishing point.
