Art Appreciation on a Budget

Van Gogh, Cezanne, Rousseau, Seurat, and Gauguin are each included in this awesome set of printable mini books. You can start your own classroom library with other books included in this series!

Post Impressionist Mini Books

I Became an Artist and You Can Too- Post Impressionism is the first in a series of mini books that is excellent for homeschool students as well as any art classrooms! These tiny books have color reproductions of artworks by each artist as well as information about their life and art!

Set 1 - Post Impressionism includes these artists:
Vincent van Gogh
Paul Cezanne
Henri Rousseau
Georges Seurat
Paul Gauguin


Let's explore some ways to use these books!

Early Finishers and Sub Work        

1. Set up folders with copies of the two handouts included with the mini books set.
2. Have students choose a mini book and fill out the information on the handouts.

Critiquing Skills

Use the handouts to dig deeper into each artist/mini book. Students will identify key elements and use skills to identify what makes an artwork successful.

Introduce a Lesson

Already have a lesson you love? Perhaps a painting lesson on Rousseau? Use these mini books to enhance what you already have!

There are tons of ways to use these mini books in your classroom!
