Sunflower Painting

 LI: To paint a still life of sunflowers in the style of Vincent Van Gogh.

In this DLO above, I have learnt to draw what I see and make use of all the space available. To get the different shades I mixed colours to make light and dark tones of the same colour. I learnt to use layers of paint to build the colours and I had to remember not to overload the brush with paint. I dabbed the brush and thought carefully about brush stroke direction to create sharp edges and lines. I really liked painting my sunflowers because it was fun and we had to use different layers and colours.
