6. Art

This work will be for this week and next week.  I have attached photos of landscape paintings by some British Victorian artists – Myles Foster, George Boyce, John North and Thomas Seddon. As you can see, they are very different from Van Gogh.  Why are they so different?  Look carefully at these and choose one that you especially like. Draw and colour it using whatever colouring materials you have – paint, felt pens, coloured pencils etc… 

I have also uploaded a power point about William Morris.  Create a fact file about him using some of the information and pictures from the slides.  Copy a few of his designs.  Why do you think he gave them these names?
