Van Gogh Sunflowers

First graders learned about Vincent Van Gogh and looked at his sunflower paintings for inspiration.

They used a sponge to print the center of their flowers and a pencil eraser for the seeds.

They double loaded their brushes with 2 colors for the petals.

and filled their paper with a full composition of flowers.

A sponge was used to dab the background with color.

Hard at work...

Beautiful!
