About this School Project (2nd Snowman Portraits)

After studying portraits of Vincent Van Gogh, students took that knowledge and learned about different points of view of portraits. We learned that an artist could create a frontal facing portrait as well as a profile or side view of a person. We took this knowledge and applied it to create three different snowmen. We read the book “Snowmen at Night” by Caralyn Buehner and Mark Buehner to gain insight as to what activities snowmen liked to do for activities. One of our portraits is a frontal view, another a side view, and the last is our snowman doing a fun activity. We had to keep in mind that the snowman had to have the same appearance in each picture. Experimenting with oil pastels and how they can blend together was also a great amount of fun!

Comments about this Artwork

	Those are some very jaunty hats on the snowmen. And, I liked the idea that they would have fun by sliding down the mountain slope!! Bet you had fun, too, creating this art. Coco October 24, 2024
	You have incredible talent with your drawing and sculptures (which you do at home). The people skiing down the hill is great! Bubbie October 24, 2024
	This is so great! Love the face of your snowman. You did a perfect job of showing your snowman in profile. Then to show your snowman having fun skiing down the mountain is fantastic! So impressed with your artwork. Grandma October 24, 2024
