Fine Art | Art Unit Study

An artist study scrapbook is a fun, creative activity to showcase what your child has learned about a painting or an artist. An artist study scrapbook is similar to a picture scrapbook, but it features famous paintings of the great artists instead. You can add embellishments to it just like a picture scrapbook. This page offers resources that you can use in your artist study scrapbook.

The Scrapbook

I used an inexpensive 12x12 scrapbook that I got from the Dollar Tree for this project. It works well and didn't cost a lot of money.

Title Of Page

I used my computer to make a fancy title for the page, but you could also use stickers, die cut letters or even hand write it.

Short Report

My little guy is not able to write a long report, but this little sheet covered the basics. I had to fill it in for him.

Drawing

I added a drawing that my little one made of the picture we were studying. I then added a copy of the original painting with it. I got my copy from the back of a calender, but some other places you can get pictures from are old books, post cards, the internet (print them out) or some places sell small versions of artist's prints.

One More Thing....

Another thing that can be added that I don't have represented here is coloring pages. There are many sources of coloring pages of famous paintings and they would add a nice addition to an art study scrapbook.
