Following Charlotte Mason’s approach, we have continued to look at and enjoy a famous artist and his works for several weeks. This week we enjoyed more of Klimt’s amazing art.
Once again, as we did with our Klimt’s Tree of Life, I printed out outline pictures of some of his works and we sat quietly painting while we listened to music.
Kate and I both did the same picture, but each of us followed a different approach.
Kate painted hers in dazzling acrylic colors and gold,
while I studied the original painting and applied similar colors with gold paint.
Lara chose to do a Klimt picture of mother and child, and she stunned me with her beautiful technique.
Simple and beautiful, isn’t it?
Art appreciation is really do-able! Give these ideas a try!
Blessings,
