Students choose a small tissue paper square, and crinkle it up around the end of a pencil.
Using the pencil, students dip the tissue paper square into the glue.
Students then paste the tissue paper down onto the sunflower template and hold it there until it sticks well (5 seconds).
Repeat the steps until the entire sunflower picture is complete, using green for the leaves and stem, brown for the seeds and yellow or red for the petals.
van Gogh and the Sunflowers (Anholt's Artists Books for Children)
Young Camille befriends a strange visitor to his small town, and one day he brings this man a gift of bright, beautiful sunflowers. The man is the artist Vincent van Gogh, and the sunflowers quickly become the subject of a magnificent painting. This is a title in Barron’s Anholt’s Artists Books for Children series, in which author and illustrator Laurence Anholt recalls memorable and sometimes amusing moments when the lives of the artists were touched by children. Anholt’s fine illustrations appear on every page and include reproductions of works by the artists.
