Claude Monet’s Garden Bridges and Water Lilies By Randy Farley
Claude Monet • Lived in Giverny, France. • Lived from 1840 to 1926. • Father of Impressionism. • Loved to paint in his garden and outside.
Impressionism • A style of painting where artist paints the way they see things rather than making them look realistic. • The colors are pastel and use choppy brush strokes.
Landscapes • Paintings of the land outside.
Water lilies • Monet's most famous painting subject was his water lilies. • He painted these over and over again.
Day 1: Building a bridge • Put name and class code on back of paper, then flip the paper over. • Using the painters tape, make a bridge by tearing the tape and taping it on to the white paper.
Day 2: Painting • Move to either the white and blue table or the green and yellow table. Wait till Mrs. Farley gives the signal to switch tables. • At the white and blue table paint in a sky, water under the bridge and clouds. (Later you can add a sun and such. Do not use the yellow paint). • At the yellow and green tables paint in grass and flowers.
Day 3 and 4: Pull off Tape • Carefully pull of the tape. (Throw it away when you are done) • Use the pastels to add sun, water lilies, fish, frogs, Monet, flowers, birds in the sky and other details.
