In How Artists See Animals children can see how Franz Marc
transformed an ordinary cow into a magical one by using brilliant
colors; how Roy Lichtenstein created goldfish out of metal; how
John James Audubon depicted the elegance of a flamingo in its
natural environment; and how Robert Jew made an iguana look so real
that it seems about to crawl off its canvas. How Artists See is a
breakthrough series of interactive, inquiry-based books designed to
teach children about the world by looking at art and about art by
looking at the world. Each volume presents sixteen diverse works of
art, all devoted to a subject that every child already knows from
personal experience. Author Colleen Carroll's engaging,
conversational text is filled with thought-provoking questions and
imaginative activities that spark children's natural curiosity both
about the subject of the artwork they are looking at and about the
way it was created. This direct, interactive approach to art - and
to the world - promotes self-exploration, self-discovery, and
self-expression. The books introduce basic artistic concepts,
styles, and techniques, and are loads of fun. For children who want
to know more about the artists whose works appear in each book,
biographies are provided at the end, along with suggestions for
further reading and an international list of museums where each
artist's works can be seen. As children begin to understand the
multitude of ways that artists see, they will deepen their
appreciation of art and artists, of the world around them, and of
their own unique vision.
