Art Ideas. Image via Wikipedia We love art! Here is a summary of all our art appreciation lessons, art activities and downloads. We use Charlotte Mason‘s art appreciation approach. She says, “Children should learn pictures, line by line, group by group, reading, not books, but pictures themselves … After a short story of the artist’s life … the pictures are studied one at a time.

Children learn not merely to see a picture but to look at it, taking in every detail.” Charlotte Mason recommended studying one artist at a time so children become aware of that artist’s style and can recognize his works even when that particular painting was not studied. 1.

How to make an Owl - Art Project. Here is a very effective Owl Art Project you can do with your kids. It's somewhat halloweenish as his eyes seem to follow you around the room. I was making breakfast one morning when I thought....someones looking at me, more specifically an owl is looking at me, inspiration strikes.

Materials Required: -cardboard egg carton -paint (orange,red,yellow,brown,white,black)-paintbrush-paper-newspaper-glue-scissors-stick from the garden-gluegun-feathers (optional) My youngest went on strike...he'd rather play with his brother than do a sample for class so I'll have to post his work at a later time. Cut out your eyes and beak from the egg carton in one piece. Try to get the little triangles above the eyes as well as this looks more owl like.

Pull out your paints and start painting. Take some newspaper, paint a piece white and one piece a dark brown. Let dry. Now for some fun, splatter time. Paint some accent feather paper. < Cut out and glue to a black piece of paper for the background. Ta da! Gail. Art Curriculum for Homeschools & Classrooms — Meet the Masters.
