American Artists - Hans Hofmann


We started our art curriculum for our new school year. We are continuing Great American Artists and our artist this week was Hans Hofmann. We loved viewing his colorful art work.


We always start by learning about the artist and writing a notebook page for her art notebook. I try to include a photo of the artist when possible.


She also writes an artist notecard to add to our art timeline.


J decided that she wanted to paint her project instead of the suggested project - tissue paper and paint. So, she made lots of squares on her paper and painted with watercolors.


Here is her final project.


She was able to get some bold color with her watercolors and she practiced some texturing as well. Another American artist down....See you soon.

WES Kindergarten - this teacher discussed cool and warm colors and created a large project with her kindergarteners.
