Famous Art to Colour

Not only does this wonderful book introduce children to famous paintings and portraits from all over the world, but it allows children to colour and complete them themselves. This book presents the gift of art in an enlightening and interactive activity book. A brilliant book to help children learn their Picassos from their Van Goghs. Each painting provides a detailed description of the painting, analysing the artist's use of colour, perspective, concepts and even possible thought processes. This is a great way to show children that art is more than a picture, but also an expression of emotion and feeling. Famous art includes Van Gogh's Chair, Paul Kelle's ‘Building Blocks’ and ‘Fruit and Flowers in a Terracotta Vase’ by Jan van O, and lots more colourful paintings. Children can channel their inner artist and colour famous paintings as they choose or simply copy the originals. A fantastic way to practise creativity with a more than satisfying result.
