What teachers are saying:
-My students read about the artist and then were able to recreate his/her own version of the style of painting. This was used as a very useful guide and resource.
-This really helped me create an engaging art history unit! The students were able to discuss the artwork afterwards and it made their own artwork more intentional.
-My students love Kandinsky's art work, especially the concentric circles. Your resource is great and helps them to create their own.
-I often do an artist study every year and my students really look forward to it so this was a great activity. I made a google slide to start the unit that the kids loved. Then we did this project. The kids are really enjoyed it and they look really cool. But this project did take longer than I expected.
-This was amazing! What a great resource. I love your products. They are so detailed and so organized. I can't wait to do the next project. Thank you so much!
