Hey, friends. A new DrawTogether Podcast episode is here!! And! A twist: in some upcoming episodes we’ll look to artists working in different mediums to inspire our drawing. We’ll learn a little about their artwork, how they make it and why, and then we’ll explore their work through drawing. Cool? Cool. Let’s go.
Fun fact: Not only did Piet Mondrian reduce the elements in his paintings, he also reduced his name. His given name was Pieter Cornelis Mondriaan. Further proof there are No Rules in Art except those we make up for ourselves! (And Clean Up.)
The kids in my classroom (3/4 grade) enjoyed this new direction… and it led to some great questions/research to learn more about Mondrian. Thank you for adding another great experience into our learning community!
Thanks Catherine! The podcasts are audio only - aside from a few images in the email, we leave the visuals up to your imagination and your drawing. Let us know how they're working for you.
This was a really fun art chat!
Glad you had fun. Is this kind of artist focus something you/kid would like to do more of?

I can hear your voice but I cannot see the visual portion. ck
