Art History Lesson: Greek Vases

Greek Vases is the third in our Art Exploration through Time Series. Students love exploring and creating with patterns. This lesson is perfect for connecting geometric shapes and patterns through Art! Simple art materials are used for this project, such as black Sharpie markers and orange/brown watercolor paints. This is a terrific project to build your young artist’s confidence and work on some basic drawing skills.

This lesson is great for ages 7-12 but any age student with a little guidance will love creating these Greek Vase paintings.
