“There was a crooked man, and he walked a crooked mile,
He found a crooked sixpence against a crooked stile;
He bought a crooked cat which caught a crooked mouse,
And they all lived together in a little crooked house.”
That sweet, little Mother Goose nursery rhyme is the inspiration for the next Painting Bee class with April Hendricks.  Van Gogh’s House at Auvers will be our inspiration piece for this class. Why this painting? Why this artist?
We will explore the power of the broken line and how to use it to show movement and create interest. In fact, Van Gogh used the technique to create the impression of color blending….without actually mixing it! Just look at the blues and greens on that roof! We will have a template to transfer the image.
