I had noticed the Kustav Klimt project out there on several blogs. Here was my take on teaching about the Austrian artist's 'Tree of Life." We talked about Klimt and Symbolist who are know for their fantasy & mystery style art. Students painted swirls and curls with the gold paint, during the next class they added fantasy/mystery items with the construction paper crayons. All done on 9 X 12 black construction paper, took us two 60 minute classes.
