Why
do people create art? How do artists paint pictures? What is
line, tone, texture and pattern? Lifting the lid on Art
answers these and many more questions to help teach art in the
classroom and in art galleries. It explores paintings,
sculpture, decorative works of art, modern art, art from the
past and art from a variety of cultures. All the points are
explained in clear and simple terms, and illustrated with over
40 works of art from local collections throughout the UK.
There are also suggestions for imaginative activities which
explore the ideas explained in each chapter. They include
projects for the classroom and for visits to art galleries and
museums.
