Van Gogh's Thatched Cottages this week!

This week our students will be painting Van Gogh's Thatched Cottages. These were some of his last works and you can see his strokes were a lot looser and somewhat more carefree. We hope our students learn to let go and just let these paintings happen. I always like too see who can resist the urge to make the roof lines and walls so straight and just let them curve along with all the other lines such as the grass and the hills. I know I will enjoy this weeks art and we hope our students do as well and they are as proud of what they can do as I am. They suprise me every week.
