This class will use four famous artists as a starting point for open-ended exploration of color, line, shape, movement, composition, and creativity. The four lessons demonstrate that art experiences do not have to focus on creating a specific “finished product.” Instead, educators can use art to encourage children to observe, experiment, make choices, communicate ideas, and express themselves.
