Van Gogh Hero

Research Van Gogh and the characteristics of his artworks.

Look for a photograph of someone you admire, a hero and to interpret their portrait in the style of Vincent Van Gogh. Remember to consider how to translate his brushstrokes into pencil mark making, a fully considered background and color theory.

Bring attach in your sketchbook:

  1. a copy of the original image if possible,
  2. a Van Gogh reference if possible, along with the title of the artwork.
  3. your version in colored pencil
