Spotlight on Art

In Term 3 Kindergarten students studied ‘Famous Artists’ Landscapes’ as a part of their ‘Our Living World Studies’. They studied Vincent Van Gogh’s ‘Sunflowers’, Claude Monet’s ‘Waterlilies’ and Henri Rousseau’s ‘Exotic Landscape and Tropical Forest with Monkeys’. Moyi Chen’s (KC) lovely ‘Rousseau’ collage demonstrates skills in relief printmaking; drawing with the challenging forms of monkeys and a tiger and carefully cutting shapes to arrange into a composition similar to the artist’s original artwork.
