Impressionist Week!










Welcome to Impressionist Week!
Impressionism is one of my favourite periods of art! 
Some of the most prominent artists  of the time were as Degas, Monet and Renoir. 
It was all about light, colour, and painting what they saw in front of them. 
Have a listen to the story below called 'Katie and the Impressionists' and then have a look at the options for art this week, plus - some bonus photos of me by my favourite paintings!











Directions:

* First, flatten/fold your cupcake liners in half and glue them to the center of your popsicle stick. This is the ballerina’s tutu.
* Repeat for each ballerina puppet you are making today.
* Once the cupcake liners are down, grab your paint pens and draw on a face, hair and of course – ballet slippers onto the popsicle stick.
* Glue on a “hairbow” paper punch out to finish the glamorous look.
* To finish off the cupcake liner and craft stick ballerina puppet, wrap/bend a single pipe cleaner a few times around the centre of the popsicle sticks to resemble arms.
* At this point you can also add other embellishments (like scrapbook stickers, glitter, gems) that you want to make it your own!


Here is photo of me by the real-life 'Waterlilies' by Monet in Paris!
