Sketch Tuesday – Flowering Garden at Saint-Addresse

Please read the end of this post for the summer plans for Sketch Tuesday. Join us when you can!

Link to view: Flowering Garden at Sainte-Addresse (or Garden in Bloom at Sainte-Addresse)

Flowering Garden at Sainte-Addresse: Paint a scene from your own garden but make sure to have a building or part of a building somewhere in the painting. Notice how Monet used the flower garden to frame the painting and try to imitate that style in your painting.

This week’s assignment is due Monday, August 5, 2019.

Find a view where you can draw and then paint a scene like the one you see in this painting. You will need a foreground, a middle ground, and a background. Don’t forget to make your horizon line first and then sketch in the other areas. You may copy this painting if you would rather do that instead.

Harmony Fine Arts Grade 1 – Revised Second Edition

Now Available for Purchase!

I have been working behind the scene to create a completely revised and reformatted Harmony Fine Arts Grade 1 plan. This revision is a revamp of the original plan to eliminate the resources that were no longer available or too expensive and to add some more online options for learning that have become available since I first created the plans many years ago.

*I have updated the links for picture study and added additional suggestions in Option 2 so that they are more cohesive and connected to Option 1 for the the families that want to complete both Options at the same time.

*You will be pleased to see that the materials list is much shorter and contains only the items you MUST have to use the program.

*All three options for art appreciation are now on one landscape oriented page for easier use and comparison.

*All music listening suggestions are now linked to YouTube videos so there is no need to purchase any CDs.

*I have added 3 new coloring pages to the plans for you to use.

*I have included more YouTube links to supplement your picture study and art appreciation.

*Download a sample of the new format here: Harmony Fine Arts Grade 1 Revised Plans Sample
