Inspirations from Van Gogh
Natural Form
Lesson Objectives: How can I create an object in nature using Van Gogh's line technique in tissue paper?
How can I make my object appear stylized in a natural form genre?
Van Gogh and many other artists used their natural surroundings as inspiration for their works.
Remember, Natural Form is a style where the artist represents an object found in nature.
Use Van Gogh's work (lines to show movement, pattern and texture), as inspiration
to re-create these natural forms into textured works of art.

Step Four: Complete your work by covering the entirety of your blank page in lines of tissue paper.
Step Five: Be sure your work is neatly presented and completed with your name and date at the back of the page.
