Description: For this project, we tore up tissue paper and used clear acrylic paint to sort of "glue" it to a black sheet of construction paper. Then we were tasked with creating some sort of landscape scene to glue to the front. The goal of this piece was to embody the practices of Vincent van Gogh in his famous piece, "Starry Night." We also wrote down facts we learned about the artist during the presentation at the beginning of the lesson. This slip of paper will be displayed with the art projects. I think this is a great way for viewers to learn a bit about the artist that inspired the project.
Extension Activity: I would have my students rip up tissue paper and create their own design on a piece of wax paper. Once their projects were dry, we would cut the rough edges and make two frames out of construction paper and sandwich the tissue design in the center. The final product would be a sun catcher they could place in the windows of the classroom, and eventually their home.
