Second Grade Flower Vases

Second graders have created these still-life flower vases based on Vincent Van Gogh's "Sunflowers". We drew a vase, learned how to create several types of flowers, and created a table and background in the picture. Second grade learned how to color in using lines to imitate the brushstrokes, similar to Van Gogh. This creates energy and movement in a piece of art. The students all did a wonderful job and I just love the different items they drew on their table tops.
