KinderArt

We began our KinderArt program last week with a look at Paul Cezanne's piece, Apples and Oranges. We began by looking very closely at what we noticed in the painting, then learned a little about the artist himself. We also began making our artwork modeled after Apples and Oranges by making orange and red "community paper"; a process where children paint entire sheets of paper to then use to cut out shapes. We used this paper to cut circles for our apples and oranges. We are currently working on tracing and cutting shapes of bowls and pitchers and will use these to create a final picture. Ask your child to tell you more!
The painting is recreated in the classroom for children to look more closely at.
