Hi everyone! I’ve been working on a fun unit study for next year! It’s called The World’s Greatest Artists Vol. 1 and I’m excited to share it here with you today!
Come along on our quest to learn about some of the world’s greatest artists! So grab some art supplies and get ready to explore, create, and learn!
In this series of artist studies, we will be learning about 8 of the world’s greatest artists. We will immerse ourselves in the work of each artist so we become well familiar with their style, methods, and images.
Each study includes:
- Lesson plans for each week
- Lap Book printables
- Artist Notebooking page
- Art Puzzles
- Artist Flashcards
Much of our time studying will be through open discussion and hands on experimentation. Upon completion of this curriculum you will be able to easily recognize the artwork from each artist studied, learn to look at art critically, as well as have gained an appreciation for art in general. You will also have explored some new techniques, and created several of your own unique masterpieces! And at the end you’ll have a wonderful Greatest Artists Lap Book to refer to!
Resources needed for this study include:
I highly recommend the Mike Venezia Books to go along with my curriculum, they are included in the lesson plans. The books are a fun addition and are perfect for younger kids!
If you would like to skip this additional cost, you can often find them at your local library, or you can do internet searches for each piece of art discussed as you go through the curriculum as well.

Thank you so much! This looks wonderful!
This is awesome! Thanks so much.
This looks totally awesome! Erica you are such a blessing to so many families.
This is such and answer to prayer! I love you! 😀 I have some books and we are starting on Monday. I have two questions: Can we mix up the order? I didn't notice anything when I skimmed over indicating any reason not to. There is a Da Vinci exhibit at a museum nearby but only for the summer. Also, am I missing what page 29 is to be used for? I am not sure what to do with that page. Love it, you are awesome and probably don't sleep enough 😀 Thank you!
This is soooo cool! Thank you! I eagerly await Volume 2, 3, 4, 5, 6? 😉 Thank you for sharing and for this one Free! 😀
Thank you, Erica. This will nicely complement all the artist studies I do with Bear and j-jo. I'm especially thankful it is free!
Soooo nice!! Thank you! 🙂
