Sneak Peek at Rembrandt Art Curriculum

Posted on June 4, 2019

During an interactive presentation, Meet the Masters elementary school students are introduced to Rembrandt van Rijn and his life in 17th century Holland. They learn about his strong yet sympathetic personality and how it influenced his art throughout his life; from his 90+ self-portraits to painting others and developing his unique painting style using light and dark unlike any other. They learn that it’s known as “Rembrandt Lighting.” With the aid of a flashlight to define dramatic lighting, the children participate in an activity where they see and understand highlights and shadow.  Rembrandt’s special technique of painting these contrasts carries over to their own artwork as they create windmills in the foreground of a Dutch landscape.

Everyone Loves MTM!

As a volunteer for my son’s school, Peace with Christ Christian School, in Aurora, Colorado, I recommended the Meet the Masters program to the art teacher and to the principal. One track was purchased the next year and another track was purchased the subsequent year. Volunteers moved between classrooms presenting artists to children who were excited and enthusiastic about learning the Masters of art.  The curriculum presented the artist biography, broke down art techniques into manageable pieces, and enhanced the students artistic skills.

Wishing you many years of continued success in bringing art and Meet the Masters to children, of all ages.
