Vincent Van Gogh is the latest artist that the children have learning about and to get a taste of his work we looked at “Sunflowers” and “Starry Night”. The children talked about what they liked in his paintings and which painting they preferred.
Bethany: I like “Starry Night” best ’cause it has lots of stars on it. It’s funny that it’s a yellow moon – it should be white.
Dan: I like “Sunflowers” best ’cause it’s got nice colours.
Riley: I like the vase in the “Sunflowers”
Kailey: “Starry Night” is best ’cause it’s colourful.
Freya: I like the “Sunflowers” one best ’cause I like sunflowers.
Theo: I like the blue bits in the middle of the sunflowers.
The children also produced their own artwork using Van Gogh’s “Sunflowers” as inspiration. Have a look in Nursery and you can see their super efforts. We will put photos of their art work here soon.
