Sunflower Painting

Last week, we were doing a painting. We were inspired by a famous art person named Vincent Van Gogh. He was a famous artist, who created cool paintings. He created 900 paintings all together and sold 2 in his lifetime. One of his most famous paintings was called the Sunflowers. It was a pot, with sunflowers, and 2 color backround. So we dicided to do this art. First we started by practicing making flowers on a paper so we knew what to do next time. We used a technique where after you've painted the circle of the flower, you have to drag the paint brush down, and twist it at the end, so it looks like a petal. Then the next day, we started painting our backrounds. We had to paint the bottom light, and the top dark. After that we started to paint the flowers on our paper. We had to paint lightly or else the paint will make the paper soggy. After we painted the flowers onto the paper using the technique, we had to paint a little bit of yellow on the edge of the flower, and let it dry. When it was dry, it looked so cool. I compared it to the Vincent Van Gogh one, and it almost looked the same. I love art, and I can't wait till we do it again.
