BROOKFIELD • CONNECTICUT
INTRODUCTION

Artists work with many different tools and


materials to make art. They also spend a lot of

time looking carefully at shapes, patterns, and


colors in the world around them.

This book is about how artists see people.

On every page you will find a work of art by a different

famous artist, which will

give you ideas and

inspiration for

the project.

You don't have to be a

brilliant artist to do the

projects. Look at each piece

of art, learn about the

artists, and have fun


being creative.

Many people in Austria, where Gustav Klimt


lived, thought he was an unusual and interesting
artist. He was a big, quiet man who worked
hard in his studio from early morning to late
evening. All his paintings had a great deal of
pattern in them. He used straight lines for men
and curved shapes for women. Hands interested
him, and he often made them an important part
of his pictures.

to be interested in photography. He looked at


people as if he were a camera, drawing them in

Self-Portrait 1889

Vincent Van Gogh grew up in Holland but later


lived and worked on his paintings in France. When
he was thirty-six, he painted this portrait of himself
looking like a French farmer. Van Gogh did not
want to paint like anyone else, and nobody
seemed to understand his way of working.
n Abstract portraits
Paul Klee's painting is abstract rather than

realistic. He used geometric shapes like circles,

ovals, triangles, rectangles, and squares to

. make his portrait. You can draw a picture

of people you know in the same style.

Senecio 1922
PAUL KLEE (1879 - 1940)

Texture
Klee painted
this picture on
linen, which is a
roughly woven
material. You
can see
the texture of

the cloth

through the
paint.

Paul Klee did not paint like other artists of his


day. He liked to work alone and usually did about
two hundred pictures a year, each one different
from the last. Many of his pictures were made up
of shapes and patterns that had a hidden
meaning. This portrait is called Senecio, which is

the name of a group of plants. The title is the clue


to help us see that Klee has painted this face to
look like the head of a flower.
Making a mosaic
Look at the colors, patterns, and tones in this

mosaic from Ravenna in Italy. It was made by

pressing pieces of colored glass, marble, and


stone into cement to make a large picture. You

can make your own mosaic using paper.

Project: Mosaic portrait

Step 1. Find a picture in a magazine

of the face on a piece of cardboard.

Step 2. Cut or tear lots of colored

scraps of paper from magazines.

Choose colors that you can use


to create a face, mouth, eyes, nose, and hair. Try
to find lots of different tones of the same color.

Step 3. Glue die scraps to

Assemblage
Many famous people liked Arcimboldo's portraits

so much that they paid him to paint one for

them. Arcimboldo's paintings are made by


. assembling a collection of objects. You can make
a strange head using things you have at home.

Project: Collage

interesting objects like

paper clips, thread

spools, string, nuts and bolts,

hooks, screws, pins, wire, ^


wrappers, and wood. Find a piece of

cardboard from an old box. It will need to be

thick and fairly big. Glue on some fine string

to make the oudine of a face and neck.

Step 2. Try out


different objects you have collected to see

which look best as eyes, ears, nose, and


mouth. Choose something that would make
good hair. When you have made your
arrangement, glue it in place and let it dry.

You could frame it and invite your friends to see

your curious picture.

Berthe Morisot used cool colors to create a
