Monet's Giverny

Have you ever heard of the famous artist, Monet?

Claude Monet was born on November 14, 1840, in Paris, France. He drew and painted as a young man. In the 1860s he became friends with other artists, including Pierre-Auguste Renoir. The group of artists became known as the Impressionists because of Monet’s painting called Impression: Sunrise. Cedar Class have been studying lots of Monet’s paintings and this week we tried to recreate some of his water lily scenes using mixed media: paint and collage.
