Gustav Klimt Tree of Life

We have been studying Gustav Klimt

For this project we used Crayola Gold tempera paint, oil pastels, paper scraps

We have done it before, but I just did it a little differently this time. You can see my last post with directions here --->HERE 

Here is the original Tree of Life" by Gustav Klimt  that was our inspiration

Valentine's Day Trees

First, paint the hand and stamp it in the middle

Then paint the tree trunk with a paint brush (not your arm)

Then use finger tips to make the heart leaves

Then add details with paper scraps, and oil pastels
