3rd Grade: Art Lesson B

Sharon spent Thursday afternoon working as the Art Docent for Jack's class. The lesson plan looked at how artists include trees in a landscape paintings, sometimes making the trees the focal point of the composition. The class looked at Autumn Landscape by Alfred Sisley [shown below], October by Willard Leroy Metcalf and Tree With Crows by Caspar David Friedrich. Each of these paintings were of trees in fall.



For their art project, the kids created a fall tree.
