One of the most famous of all Dutch painters is Van Gogh. He painted both the landscape at the top of the screen, and the self portrait to the left. Can you see how he has used his brush strokes to give an unusual look to the paintings? His sky in the top painting is beautifully swirled. Do you think you could paint a picture in this style? Van Gogh was a very interesting but unhappy person. Perhaps you could find out what he did with his ear! |

Another interesting painter is called Mondriaan. He is a modern painter, and his paintings look quite different. What do you think of his art? The picture below is Broadway Boogie Woogie!  |

In the olden days, hundreds of years ago, famous Dutch artists painted everyday people doing everyday things. This is a famous painting by Vermeer, and it shows a young woman pouring milk into a bowl. Perhaps she is getting breakfast ready for her family. |
