Bluffton 7th graders re-create a Van Gogh original
Art students in Bluffton's seventh grade created this "group grid" drawing of Vincent Van Gogh, according to Nicole Anderson, middle school art teacher.
"Each student received a small piece of a painting by Van Gogh," she said. "The goal was to duplicate and enlarge the smaller piece using oil pastels."
The students put their pieces back together in order to come up with the large composite, on display in the hallway of the middle school art department. The image is a copy of Van Gogh's "Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear. It was created in January of 1889.
The seventh grade artists are currently completing another group grid drawing. Watch the Icon for the unveiling.
