One of the advantages of homesschooling is that you can put as much time and efforts into the arts as you feel is necessary or appropriate. Unlike the public school system, we are not subject to budget cuts, although we are limited by household income. Recently, we studied the impressionists, Particularly Monet. We combined this with a study of color and lights, in particular, tints, and how they are created. The following photo shows the Ortega girls interpretation of Monet’s “Water Lilies”. The background is made of tints of blue, green and purple and the lilies are made of construction paper. Skylar decided to go for a 3-D effect.
