Have you ever wondered what it feels like to step into a dream?
Paul Klee, the Swiss-German artist and musician, believed art could make that happen. His whimsical, abstract works – full of fantasy, movement, and color – are beloved worldwide.
He once said, “A picture may also be a dream,” and his paintings invite us to imagine, explore, and create.
Why is Klee one of our 35 master artists?
- His unique approach blends abstraction, music, and nature.
- He mastered the art of guiding our eyes with shapes, lines, and color.
- His playful compositions inspire students to think outside the box.
When students study Klee, they don’t just learn about him – they experience his techniques firsthand.
Through our three-step process, students will:
- Discover Klee’s life and art during an engaging assembly, complete with vivid slides and stories.
- Practice his signature techniques – like abstract composition and using warm and cool colors – on self-guided worksheets.
- Create their own masterpieces, such as dreamlike fish paintings or fantastical treehouses, inspired by Klee’s art.
Teaching Klee is simple and fun, even for schools without a dedicated art teacher.
- Use our scripted lesson plans to introduce Klee’s life and work.
- Share step-by-step activities that walk students through his techniques.
- Let students experiment with paint crayons, stencils, and vibrant colors to create their own unique pieces.
