This was an art activity based off of Vincent Van Gogh's style. Each student was to create a background and cityscape. The background is tissue paper glued onto a black piece of paper. Then the tissue paper was then covered with a clear protective gloss. After the protective coat was dry, then students were able to add more jazz to their background using an oil pastel. Then students were to add a cityscape at the bottom of the page again using black construction paper and a white crayon to add details to the buildings. To finish the piece, the cityscape was glued on top of the background.
Extension Activity:
This lesson could be used with a variety of landscapes and backgrounds with Vincent Van Gogh's style. If students are learning about different states, they could chose the state and make a tissue collage that is individual to that state. If the student chooses Arizona, they could keep the same background used in the cityscape, but would change the city to a desert. They could add cactus's and different levels of land since Arizona is not very flat. The student would also be able to add colored details with crayons to both the desert and cactus's.
