Written by MaryAnn Kohl and Kim Solga for ages 4-8, this book includes short biographies and information about the styles and techniques of more than 75 famous artists, from the Dark Ages up to the present day (Ghiberti to Christo and Wyeth). For each artist, an accompanying studio art project suitable for K-6 children is included, designed to focus on the media, design elements, style or type of art, or subject most associated with each individual artist. Materials needed for all projects are specified, along with directions and a sample of a child's work. |
