World Famous Artists Research

Mrs. Seymour's 1/2 Primary class has been studying World Famous Artists on the World Wide Web. They have put their research facts into a spreadsheet. Click on the names of the works of art to view them.

After learning about the different styles of art, students tried to create artwork the same way these artists did. Here they are in front of their art gallery.
