Today we talked about
Genre painting being paintings that depict everyday life. We looked at
paintings by William Sidney Mount. He was well known during the time before the
civil war for painting Genre paintings. We learned a little of his life and
painted our own Genre paintings, depicting everyday life. We learned about
color and experimented with mixing paint to make any color that we might need
for our paintings.
