Create a Post-Impressionist painting
Use the tools and colours to create your own Post-Impressionist picture. There is also a template that allows you to write an evaluation of your work.
The Post-Impressionists didn’t want to paint realistically like the art of the past, but they thought that Impressionism didn’t go far enough. Landscapes, portraits and still life were popular subjects. What will you choose to paint?
