Our artist of the month for March was Piet Mondrian, a Dutch painter from the Netherlands who was best known for his distant paintings of sharp, exact lines and bold primary colors. Although Mondrian's line's were very exact, the preschoolers were able to recreate his piece, "Tableau 2" (1922) using colored squares of paper. The children were quite focused as they carefully chose shapes to fit on there black rectangular piece of paper. It was such a pleasure to watch the children take their time and carefully place the shapes on their paper to create such beautiful artwork. The Mondrian recreations are proudly hanging on the bulletin board and will be there for a little longer before our next artist is displayed.
