5th Grade Art Lesson

Nature Art Inspired by the Artist Andy Goldsworthy

Andy Goldsworthy is a British, naturalist artist. That means that all of his art is created in nature. The art is temporary so he takes photographs to show the world what he created before nature takes it away over time. He currently lives in Scotland but creates artwork in England, Scotland, Japan, Australia, and the United States.

1.     Watch this video showcasing Goldsworthy’s art for inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTnHiOA6a0E

2.     Before you start, I want to remind you to be kind to nature when you’re creating your artwork. Try to find items on the ground and don’t harm living things.

3.     Use nature objects to create a work of ART. You could create a 3D sculpture, 2D design, or a weaving. 

4.     Photograph your nature art creation and upload the picture to Seesaw.
