I'm No Van Gogh...

As I've mentioned before, teachers are responsible for art at my school.  I am always looking for new ideas for my students.  There are many great projects out there and I am grateful that so many art teachers share their ideas.  Something that I started last year was featuring famous artists and having my students try to recreate some of their most famous paintings.  The pictures below are from Van Gogh's "Starry Night" and Kandinsky's "Circles."  The students are always very intimidated before they begin, but I am always amazed at what they produce... and I think they are too!

So, any great art ideas out there that you'd like to share?  I am always looking for new ideas and I'd like to hear yours!  Have an amazing day - spring obviously didn't know that we were expecting it to be 70 degrees yesterday...
