First Grade Cezanne Apples



So I needed a good lesson that included overlapping, placement and color. I remembered seeing a lesson on art Artsonia a while back.  Cezanne's Four Apples became my focus and our inspiration. We learned about the French artist and then began to apply the above mentioned concepts to our own art. 

We did use templates for the apples, making sure that we overlapped at least two.  Using tempera, students painted the apples like Cezanne did.  Background colors were added, (complementary colors), and then patterns were added for some interest. Pretty good, huh?
