Explore one of the world’s most famous artists through his iconic sunflower paintings.
Introduce children to Vincent van Gogh and his Sunflowers through a thoughtfully designed mini art study that combines art history, close observation and creative exploration.
Children will discover who Vincent van Gogh was, learn about Post-Impressionism and explore why sunflowers became such an important subject in his work. They'll look closely at real artworks, compare different paintings and begin to notice Van Gogh's use of colour, texture and expressive brushstrokes.
Inside you'll find:
An illustrated introduction to Vincent van Gogh and his artwork
The story behind his famous Sunflowers
Reproductions of famous artworks for children to observe
Look, think and respond activities
Opportunities to compare two of Van Gogh's sunflower paintings
A sunflower art warm-up exploring colour and shape
An introduction to Van Gogh's textured impasto technique

Rather than simply giving children facts to remember, the activities encourage them to look closely, notice details, form their own ideas and talk or write about art.
Perfect for home education, art lessons, artist studies or families who want to introduce children to great art in an accessible and meaningful way..
Ages 5–11
