Then we go on using the artists creations in the different subject lessons:
We invent and tell short stories about what we see on the picture, (what might have
happened before, or what could have happened after. What is the mood of the portrayed
person and what is the cause for it, etc..)
We talk about Nature (flora, fauna, climate and different phenomena)
We draw our own original pictures inspired by the artists work and the colors used.

( In this occasion, our pictures were inspired by Cezanne in

homage of the 200 years from his birth. These drawings are
published in the special celebration catalogue of Cezannes
Museum in Aix en Province, France.) Please, go ahead to see our
