Get into Art Animals by Susie Brooks
Get into Art introduces children to the world of art while encouraging budding artists to develop their own artistic abilities. Accomplished artists, along with some of their famous pieces and techniques are presented, then followed up with an art project reminiscent of each artist's work or genre. Perfect for active young artists of all abilities, Get into Art enables readers to discover a wealth of fine art and artists, as well as cultivate their own creativity. Get into Art Animals by Susie Brooks explores a fascinating array of animal artworks from popular artists like Degas, Warhol, and Matisse. By introducing these artistic greats, their important works depicting animals, their style, genres, and techniques, including chalk pastel, stencil, collage, and mobile projects, Get into Art Animals inspires readers to create masterpieces of their own. Included in each chapter are clear instructions for 12 intriguing and achievable art projects featuring animals from racehorses and cows to giraffe, birds, snails, and dragons, and plenty of works inspired after a featured artist.
