More Expressionist artwork...

The Scream is an Expressionist painting. In Expressionism, colors were often vivid and shocking and figures/objects were often distorted. This was done to create a feeling or a mood. The following student artworks were done in Expressionist style. Part 1 of 2 posts.

Most of you know the famous painting called “The Scream”. One of our art projects for “remote” learning was to create a parody of this famous, somewhat bizarre, piece of artwork by Edvard Munch. Part one of two posts.
