Arrow PLANT PARADE: a forum project: October '07

Plant Parade: A forum project.

The idea this month is to take one or more plant references (below) and interpret the subject in a the way you think Van Gogh may have painted them.

Below are links to definitions and works of Van Gogh - they are websites with examples of his paintings and some information about him as a painter.

http://www.vangoghgallery.com/painting/

http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/gogh/

http://www.vggallery.com/

http://www.artcyclopedia.com/artists...h_vincent.html

http://www.expo-vangogh.com/

You may, of course, also use any other source of information about the painter!

From your study select the ideas which interest you and see how you can put them into your own work.

Your work may be in any medium, you just have to try to create some of the characteristics you find in his work!

We will have one ‘reveal’ date, 25th of the month - please, no uploading before then, we’d like to see your work uninfluenced by anyone else’s!

The object is to have fun and perhaps create a piece of art you may not have thought of doing before!

This month’s references:


Tigerlily by chaosia

Tigerlily also by chaosia

Yellow tigerlily by maltman

Orange Day Lily - Charlie's Mum

Yellow Day Lily by Trimoon


Enjoy yourselves!
