Great Art Lessons for the Creative Soul
One of my favorite things about Spring is the blooming of beautiful flowers. One of my favorite art class management techniques is having bell work or "I'm done with my project, what should I do now?" activities. We have two free activities that you can use with young artists in grades K-12. Our Artist Comparison sheets have two paintings with similar subjects by two different artists. One activity compares a sculpture by Edmonia Lewis and Meta V.W. Fuller while the other sheet compares a painting by Jacob Lawrence and Allan Crite. These sheets can be used as bell work activities or as a great way to develop critical thinking skills/ discussion skills. They can also be used as an activity that students can complete when they finish an art project early. Download them for free and then let us know how they work in your art class. 1. Write two sentences about how the paintings are similar. 2. Write two sentences about how the paintings are different. 3. Which painting do you like the most? Why?
