    Vincent van Gogh immortalized sunflowers with seven vibrant still life paintings that are anything but still. We will look at van Gogh’s autumn paintings, his sunflowers and landscapes, and his dynamic use of colors, paint, and brush stroke. Van Gogh created an energy that inspires students today. This class will capitalize on the students own natural vibrancy and momentum. We will discuss the use of color harmonies and brush stroke. The students will create a masterpiece of their own using acrylic paint. Appropriate for children 7 to 14 years old. All materials are included.
