Paint in the impressionist style like Claude Monet.
This project is inspired by Claude Monet. Claude Monet was born in Paris, France in 1840. Monet was a founder of Impressionist Painting. In 1892, Claude Monet moved to a house in Giverny, France. It had a garden, pond, orchards and a bridge that would serve as a source of great inspiration for the artist – one that he painted many times and would become his most famous work, The Water Lilies.
With this kit, students will use oil pastels and a resist technique to create Monet’s famous Japanese bridge and water lilies floating on the pond.
