Using the Internet - Art and Design

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

An interesting resource that might work best in an upper level art course, this handout provides a list of nine websites where young artists can read and study about all forms of art. These online resources range from a dictionary of visual arts terms to online workshops in painting, design and visual literacy. The next two pages encourage pupils to perform an in-depth study of van Gogh's paintings and African art. These pages include instructions and assignments to help direct their study.</
