STILL LIFE
A still life (plural: still lifes) is a work of art depicting mostly inanimate subject matter, typically commonplace objects which are either natural (food, flowers, dead animals, plants, rocks, shells, etc.) or man-made (drinking glasses, books, vases, jewelry, coins, pipes, etc.).
With origins in the Middle Ages and Ancient Greco-Roman art, still-life painting emerged as a distinct genre and professional specialization in Western painting by the late 16th century, and has remained significant since then.

LEARN TO COLOR LIKE VAN GOGH
We are trying this Van Gogh for kids Art Project by imitating his “Wheat Field with Crows” painting with some soft crayons.
Van Gogh was famous for painting in a really super thick manner, which gave him lots of texture.
You can get a similar look just by making a ”sketchy“ drawing with soft crayons.
This project is a simplification of Van Gogh’s original composition, but it uses a similar palette. He was a master of color, and you can’t go wrong by following his choices.
MATERIALS
- Van Gogh Wheatfield PDF Tutorial
- Drawing paper
- Soft crayons
DIRECTIONS
1. Draw the horizon line, road, moon in pencil.
2. Color with yellow, brown and blue crayons.
3. Draw squiggly grass lines with an orange crayon.
4. Draw sketchy road lines with a rust crayon.
5. Add darker blue crayon to sky. Circle moon with white.
6. Add a few more grass lines with a darker orange crayon.
7. Use black crayons to draw large and small flying crows.

WINTER TIME
You start to make the background on your block.
Then you add snowflakes and swirls and dots with a white crayon and then paint with blue watercolor.
Then you use oil pastels to draw a circle inside each of your snow balls.
You use our fingers to smudge around the edges to give it a more 3d quality.
Next, you cut your circles out and glue the biggest to the background.
You finish adding the details of the carrot nose, stick arms, and the scarf! Can’t wait to see all the personalities emerge!
