Georgia O’Keeffe - Flower Painting

Image
"Nobody sees a flower really; it is so small. We haven’t time, and to see takes time – like to have a friend takes time.” – Georgia O’Keeffe This week I want to introduce one of the famous American Artist Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986).She is a American abstract painter .O'Keeffe painted still lifes, massive flowers, the New York at Night series, southwestern landscapes and stark bones found in the desert. Instead of painting usual size of flowers she painted enlarged versions ... of a single flower, like what you would see if you were to look through a magnifying glass. Needless to say, this fascination resulted in some stunning painting and make her very famous. She has been recognized as a " Mother of American Modernism".  I have done this workshop with my students , they all enjoyed and learned a new techniques.I also tried some of her paintings it was awesome and still i want to learn more . Meet you all again soon with my Indian floor painting...

I was so excited about all the book choices and finally choosed famous Author Eric carlc book "The Very Hungry Caterpillar " . I always admired with his colorful illustration. His books are all time favourites for Children's. During this class kids made own illustration for their ... book. Some of the young kids made their own book for first time. ST-ART is the great opportunity for young children experience with Art and Books.
