Product Description

This strikingly original art instruction book for children was devised by the successful artist who is also the author of a popular childrenâ€™s series of charming stories about many of the worldâ€™s great artists. Author Laurence Anholt emphasizes freedom and creativity as he tutors boys and girls through seven art projects in the same way that they might have been taught by such masters as Monet, Degas, and others. For example, kids are shown how toâ€•

Make a funky junk sculpture that resembles several works by Picasso

Paint a portrait in the style of Van Gogh

Make an action sculpture like Degasâ€™s dancing figures

Construct colorful cutout art in the style of Matisse

Work with wild, wet watercolors in imitation of Monet

Design a mad, marvelous machine like those constructed by Leonardo

Take a charcoal challenge in the style of CÃ©zanne

Guided by Anholtâ€™s easy-to-follow format, kids will also find many tips and secrets to help them develop creative confidence.
