Starry Night
Description : This project was inspired by Vincent van Goghs Starry Night. I glued tissue paper onto a black piece of construction paper. I got to glue the paper however I wanted to so I could create a picture that resembled Starry Night. Then once the glue had dried I cut out a setting that I wanted to place in front of my sky. I cut the setting out of more black construction paper and glued it on. I chose the snowy mountains because the colors of tissue paper I chose reminded me of the Northern Lights. I felt like mountains would be fitting for that setting. Finally, I colored white lines using an oil pastel to show movement. I also colored the tops of my mountains to make them look covered in snow. Another part of this activity was to listen to a presentation about Vincent van Gogh and write three fun facts about him on a slip of paper. Extension Activity: A fun extension activity would be have the students write a creative narrative story...
