Georgia O'Keefe Flowers

Georgia O'Keefe Flowers


Description: This painting lesson included teaching about texture. The teachers had us fold a paper into 6 sections, and they had 6 different types of texturing techniques. For this project, we looked at Georgia O'Keefe's flowers and used that knowledge to create our own flowers with watercolors. We could use our different texturing techniques such as using salt, white crayons, and dry brushing. Through this project, students can use their new knowledge of texturing to create a more realistic looking flower design.

Extension: Students could take each type of painting technique and think of different ways that they could use their techniques with other paintings. They could then choose one type of technique and make many paintings using that one technique for their art portfolio. It could be similar to the dot project in which the girl created many projects with the same theme.
