像畫家大師一樣繪畫！畢卡索、巴斯奎特藝術繪畫自定節奏

In this 4 week self paced schedule class we will learn about 4 different artists (Picasso, Rousseau, Basquat, and Calliebotte) and create art pieces that are inspired by their work. We will talk about their genre of art, create pieces to be proud of, and learn about the artists through interactive games and scavenger hunts. 

Learners will post pictures and/or video of their work (and their works in progress) on the classroom page so that fellow learners and the teacher can give feedback and encouragement on their pieces. It will be uplifting and helpful to the students and peer feedback will be fun! 
Students will also engage with each other with interactive online games, scavenger hunts, fun trivia and games about the artists we will be talking about each week!  
Here are the highlights for each week! 

Week 1 - Pablo Picasso - We will discuss his life and his influence on modern art and Cubism.  We will talk about his piece called Head of a Woman in a Hat, and students will then create their own masterpiece using crayon, marker, and watercolor based on his painting. We will talk about color, composition, creativity, and also the proper use of materials and clean up. The students will be able to create their piece based on this piece, but in their own style and with their own personality and creativity. They will post pictures of their work on the classroom page so that we can give feedback and encouragement to each learner. 

Week 2 - Henri Rousseau- We will talk about Rousseau's life and work. We will look at his piece called Exotic Landscape with Lion and Lioness. His themes and his interesting use of line in his paintings. We will have some fun facts and online game interaction during the week. 

Week 3 - Jean-Michel Basquiat- During this week we will look at the artist Basquiat. He was best known for his graffiti art and his unique style. We will talk about his life (age appropriate) and work and we will re-create one of his pieces using watercolor and crayon. We will do some puzzles related to this artist and the era.

Week 4 - Gustav Caillebotte - We will have fun exploring the little known artist Caillebotte. He was a French Impressionist artist who was known for his urban paintings of Paris. We'll talk about his life and his work.  We will re-create his beautiful artwork using crayon and watercolor and students will have fun adding their own creativity to their piece. We will have some games and interaction that is based on his work. 

The classes will be step by step allowing time for each learner to create their piece and be proud of what they create. The videos will be clear and provide at least 2 angles.

No experience is needed, but some parental help could be needed with the painting parts if the student is younger.
