Lundi l'art - Seurat

This week we looked at the artwork of a French artist names Georges Seurat.  He used paint to make his artworks.  He used little dots of paint to make this beautiful pictures.  This is called pointillism Seurat would mix dots of paint to make new colours.  He put dots of blue and dots of yellow next to each other to make green.  When you look at the dots, your eyes mix the colours together.  

We used paint and Q-tips to make our own pointillism or dot art.  First, we drew a picture with a pencil, then we used the Q-tips as our brushes to outline and colour in our drawings with dots.

Here is our beautiful artwork:

Katelyn's nails have dots just like our art work!
