Claude Monet, considered the father of impressionism, altered the landscape of painting. His
attention to changes in nature moment by moment led to multiple paintings of the same subject with subtle changes in color and light. In this lesson, your students will learn about the artist, the Impressionist art movement, and Monet's works of art. This art lesson includes lesson materials, art prints, and step-by-step instructions for a chalk pastel interpretation of Monet’s Japanese Bridge Over the Lily Pond. Art supplies not included.
